Metaphor analysis was used in the analysis of the data. 43 teachers participated in this research. Participants reflected their ideas about online mathematics education using metaphors. 27 different metaphors and 23 different reasons were created from the thoughts of the participants, the most used metaphor was "food", the two most used explanations were "need to progress in a certain program" and "lack of interaction/communication in the process". As a result of the research, it was determined that teachers mostly thought negatively about online education.
