The main objective of the study was to determine the challenges of the secondary school teachers and coping mechanisms in Modular Distance Learning in Loon Districts. The study also sought answers on the difference between the profile such as sex, age, educational attainment, type of school connected and years of teaching of the respondents and the challenges of the secondary school teachers and coping mechanisms. The descriptivecorrelational survey method was utilized using the adopted questionnaire for data gathering, and measurement. The locale of the study was all public and private secondary school teachers in Loon North and South District, Loon, Bohol. The participants included two hundred (200) teachers. The statistical tools used in the study were percentage, weighted mean, chi square of independence and Pearson’s product moment correlation. The findings showed that there was no significant difference between challenges and coping mechanisms in relation to sex, age, educational attainment, type of school connected and years of teaching profile of the teachers. It was found out that there was no significant difference between the challenges and coping mechanisms of the respondents in terms of their profile. Meanwhile, there was a significant correlation between the challenges and coping mechanisms in modular distance learning in terms of positive well-being, time management, openness to change, and peer mentoring while no significant correlation between the challenges of the secondary school teachers and coping mechanisms in terms of collaboration. Meanwhile, there was a significant correlation between the overall challenges and overall coping mechanisms of teachers in modular distance learning. It was concluded that better or strong application of coping mechanisms, the lesser challenges of the teachers experienced in Modular Distance Learning. It was recommended that formulating action plan for coping mechanisms in meeting the challenges of Modular Distance Learning can be a great help for the teachers to continue to provide quality education to the students amidst the global pandemic.
