teachers in teacher education program in a local college of Davao del Norte,
Philippines. The researchers used mixed-method approach, combining both quantitative
and qualitative methods (Halcomb & Hickman, 2015). In quantitative phase the data was
analyzed in Data Analytical technique: Mean, Standard Deviation, Pearson-r, and
Coefficient of variation were used for analyzing the participants’ average response. And
also, the qualitative phase engaged in in-depth interviews and focus group discussion that
qualitative data analysis, the researchers employed coding and thematic analysis. The
following findings revealed significant correlation between self-efficacy and students’
engagement among pre-service teachers, as determined by the Mean, R-value, and P-value.
The study’s results revealed different experiences, coping mechanisms, and insights
regarding the impact of self-efficacy on students’ engagement. On the data integration,
data found that both quantitative and qualitative are merging, hence, the nature of data
integration of both phases is connecting and confirming. It can be concluded that selfefficacy
does play an important role in boosting students’ engagement, contributing to
their personal development and active participation in learning process. This research
shows the English pre-service teachers have a significantly high of perceived self-efficacy
in listening, reading writing, and speaking, high students’ engagement behavioral, cognitive,
