Human Needs and Teaching Practices among Alternative Learning System Facilitators and their Influence on Learners’ Performance

This is a purposive descriptive study on human needs and teaching practices among alternative learning system facilitators and their influence on learners’ performance. The locales of the study were the nine city school divisions in the province of Negros Occidental. A three-part survey questionnaire was used to gather data on respondents’ profiles, then levels of human needs, and teaching practices. The study showed that student engagement practices got a very high result while the level of learner performance in accreditation and equivalency test was low. On the other hand, there is a significant relationship between the human needs of ALS facilitators and their teaching practices, however, there was no significant relationship between teaching practices and learners’ performance.
