Abstract:
This qualitative study sought to explore the experiences of the neophyte educators at the Bay schools. The researcher used a phenomenological study to describe individuals' actual occurrences and perspectives in the daily lives of the neophyte educators. The informants of the study were fifteen (15) neophyte educators, selected performing neophyte educators in the Bay Area schools. The study highlighted the neophyte educators' personal and professional characteristics, which delimited the tools such as researcher-made questionnaires, one-on-one interviews, documentation of observed codes and themes, and interview questionnaires among the informants of this study. These themes are (a) teaching experiences; (b) pre-service teaching personal preparations; (c) pre-service training and seminars; (d) teaching-learning difficulties; (e) teaching efficiency; (f) transportation risks; (g) harmonious school community partnership; (h) school support system. The results and findings of the study served as the basis for innovations that can be used to aid teachers, schools, and the department in providing useful support to educators in the Bay Area school community.
