"This paper presents a discussion and reflections on using a mixed-method case study research design to explore the remote work experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic. As a team, we used our own experiences and in-depth interviews with six teacher educators in the case context of a university. The themes of the analysis of these interviews were used to build a survey instrument to see to what extent other teacher educators within the boundary of the case had similar or different experiences during the first academic year of COVID-19 (2020/21). Through the discussions and reflections on the purpose of the study, the research experience and the role of case study mixed methods research, the article offers an illustration of conducting mixed-method case study research embedded with an exploratory sequential mixed-methods design. These reflections can be helpful to novice researchers about to embark on a combined case study mixed  methods design and provide insights and useful details for the more advanced researcher.
