Vol.3, No.1D

Abstract

This study focused on the “Problem Encountered of Grade 12 students with Housekeeping Services amidst the Pandemic”. Senior year is typically the high point of a student’s high school career. Seniors this year are worried about being able to graduate. They’re worried about being able to qualify and fully prepare for college admission. They know that many colleges and universities have shut down and wonder how this will affect their plans. In accord with this, the researchers addressed this problem by conducting a study to determine what challenges Grade 12 Housekeeping Students are now facing amid the Pandemic, how they plan to deal with it, and what strategies and alternatives they might consider. The researchers used descriptive qualitative research design in this study. For data gathering, the researchers decided to use survey questionnaires through Google Forms to collect the information needed, which is also favourable to the respondents. This study used purposive sampling to get accurate information from the respondents.  The researchers used the questionnaire with clear and understandable comprehension that consists of the problems encountered by the respondents in housekeeping amidst the pandemic. The fifty (50) random grade 12 students with a housekeeping subject were given a questionnaire to be answered honestly and concisely. After the long process of interpreting and analyzing the data, the researchers found that most students have missed the traditional work immersion or simply the face-to-face activities. Respondents seemed to have a slow internet connection and low-quality equipment, which hindered their abilities to study housekeeping online. Also, the respondents responded that doing simulations and attending the discussion will help them enhance their capabilities amid the pandemic.
