Abstract:
The closure of schools and adoption of the modular learning for learners caused the private integrated
school teachers to encounter challenges and prospects brought by the COVID-19 due to the virus’s
effects. Twelve (12) teachers from the private integrated school were selected and interviewed as the
subjects for the study. Questions related to the challenges and prospects encountered by the private
integrated school teachers, and subjects, were prepared by the researcher. The research findings
indicated that private integrated school teachers had a hard time adjusting to the new normal; learners'
performances were affected for there was no interactive learning during the school year Covid - 19
also caused some of the learners to drop from school or transfer to public schools. Private Integrated
school teachers' salaries were unavoidably deducted and delayed due to the low number of enrollees.
COVID-19 pandemic affected the family of the private integrated school teachers not only
financially but also emotionally, mentally, and physically due to the restrictions caused by the
pandemic.
