This research is carried out with the purpose of analyze Google Classroom through remote education from health professors and students' perception at a university in Cusco. From this perception, it is evident how the platform is applied, the interrelation between teachers and students, as well as the benefits and barriers that have arisen throughout their educational experiences. This study has a qualitative approach with a hermeneutic phenomenological design with the intervention of ten informants: 8 students and 2 teachers from a clinical area of health sciences. The results showed that Google Classroom constitutes a necessary alternative for remote education. Tutoring is not properly governed as in the face-to-face modality but monitoring by teachers is constant and permanent. They also specified that the Google Classroom has many benefits for distance education, especially for theoretical courses, but that it is not for practical clinical courses in the health area, since the healthcare part is essential, concluding that, due to its benefits, it facilitates the development of education and achieves theoretical skills, but not clinical skills.
