Abstract

INTRODUCTION

The teaching profession is twinned with the continuous problem of discipline in the classroom. Classroom teachers consider discipline as one of the major concerns in teaching. For centuries, teachers were perplexed on how and when to react on student misbehavior. The important phase of this study is the improvement of teachers' tolerance on disruptive behaviors of students and to know if there is a significant relationship between tolerance and teaching effectiveness of teachers. Given the limited studies on teaching tolerance of Filipino educators, this study is vital.

METHODS

Through systematic random sampling, 30 respondents were identified. Data collection was carried out via survey to determine their tolerance level the content of the validated instrument was based on the interview conducted as well as on the information on literature review. The instrument was structured in modified Likert fashion, respondents are instructed to answer the questionnaire based on the research instrument agreement.

RESULTS

In a total of 30 respondents, 16 of them were females and 14 were males. Most of them have ages ranging from 30 to 35 and 29 and below. On the other hand, 10 of the respondents were teaching for 6 years and below. Furthermore, half of them were assigned as TeacherII and 18 of the respondents were on their Master’s degree, 4 obtained their graduate degree, 1 finished her doctoral degree while 7 of them did not respond. The paper concluded that the teachers of Emiliano Tria Tirona Memorial National High School are tolerant most of the time towards the misbehavior of their students. Moreover, the results show that the respondents strongly viewed that they were effective in teaching.

DISCUSSIONS

Applying Pearson R on the results of the tolerance scale, the study revealed that there is no significant relationship between tolerance and teaching effectiveness among the respondents the findings of the study showed that teachers were becoming tolerant whenever their students show negative attitudes and their tolerance level differs depending on what behavior their students showed. In addition, the teachers talk to their students about the misbehavior of their students. The researchers suggest to the teachers of E.T.T.M.N.H.S. to talk with their students since it is the most common and effective way to lessen the misbehavior of the students. Aside from that, the researchers endorse to the future researchers to study the advantages and disadvantages of being either high tolerant or low tolerant.
