Especially during the pandemic process, it is extremely necessary for first-year students to adapt to this system in order to be successful in future grades. The aim of the study is to determine the working methods of 1st grade students who started distance learning from school and ear training and solfege during the epidemic period. The study group consists of 18 students of KU GSTF musicology first year. The research is a descriptive field study supported by a qualitative method and the compositions written by the students on the subject were used as data collection techniques. The articles examined through document analysis were transformed into frequency and percentage tables by descriptive analysis.As a result, it has been revealed that students are insufficient to provide self-study discipline and to produce their own methods and solutions during distance education.
