Abstract
This study investigated
the predictive influence of financial challenges and time management on the
teaching performance of secondary school teachers in the Sta. Josefa District,
Agusan del Sur. Employing a descriptive-correlational research design, data
were gathered from public secondary school teachers using adapted and validated
instruments for financial challenges and time management, alongside official
Classroom Observation Tool (COT) ratings for teaching performance. Descriptive
analysis revealed that while teachers navigate a high extent of financial
challenges, they consistently maintain "Outstanding" teaching
performance. Pearson correlation analysis indicated no significant relationship
between financial challenges and teaching performance, nor between time
management and performance. However, multiple regression analysis demonstrated
that the Personal Aspect of time management significantly predicts teaching
performance (p < 0.05), whereas the Job Aspect does not. These findings
reveal a high degree of professional insulation among educators, showing that
personal time-use discipline, goal-setting, and internal drive maintain
instructional quality despite external economic stressors. District-level
interventions focusing on teacher financial wellness and self-regulation are
highly recommended.
