Education at all levels has taken an unimaginable turn by shifting its teaching and learning methodologies from face-to-face to virtual; expanding the reach and coverage, being flexible, comfortable, breaking down social and connectivity barriers. However, there are disadvantages for people who do not have the technological resources to access it, which results in the widening of the gap in access to education for the citizens of a country. For this reason, the results of the research that sought to analyze the perceptions of face-to-face and virtual teaching by students of a higher education institution in Ecuador are presented. To carry out the study, a descriptive design was applied, based on quantitative and qualitative methodologies, by means of questionnaires applied through the technique of surveys to 200 university students. Statistical analyses were based on statistics such as Cronbach's Alpha. The results indicate that virtual instruction must meet certain requirements such as accessibility, effective communication, innovative methods and techniques of interest to students.
