Abstract

This study investigates the effects of low self-esteem on the academic performance of Grade 12 HUMSS students. The result proved that most students have been able to cope with this issue and still achieve their dream academics. The research revealed that low self-esteem affects every student's academic achievement. Therefore, every student should be given a program where they can participate and freely express themselves. They should avoid negative self-talk, practice self-care and build positive relationships. Teachers must provide positive feedback and encouragement to their students.

The researchers selected 70 students and surveyed them through an online questionnaire distributed to every participant. The study uses quantitative research, a type of descriptive research that aims to know the extent to which different conditions can be obtained among the subjects. It is used to identify the main factors affecting every student's self-esteem and academic performance.
