I don't have Ubuntu 18.04 here to test but from memory there is a
setting (enabled by default) so that alt-tab switches between
applications but to switch between windows within an application you
can use alt-~ (That's alt with the tilde key: ~).

That's assuming you have multiple terminal windows. If on the other
hand you multiple terminal tabs within one window then you can use
ctrl-pgup/pgdn or alt-1/2/3 to switch between tabs.
