Abstract:

The study determined the problems and encounters of the BEEd Pre-service Teachers of ISPSC, Tagudin Campus. Specifically, it sought to answer the degree of seriousness on the problems and encounters they met in their teaching internship and what validated action plan can be proposed in their teaching internship. The participants were the 38 BEEd student interns enrolled in the program during the Academic Year 2023–2024. The study used a descriptive-quantitative method. The instrument used was a modified survey questionnaire. The research findings indicate that pre-service teachers have positive relationships with cooperating teachers but faced significant challenges in various areas; and the developed action plan was very highly valid and perceived as highly useful. From the drawn conclusions, it is suggested that supervisors and administrators should investigate the effectiveness of mentorship and support systems in improving the pre-service teachers’ teaching experience; the study could explore any potential factors that may influence the success of the action plan, conduct a follow-up study on the action plan wherein researchers could assess impact on pre-service teachers’ professional development and teaching practice; and future researchers could enhance the scope of their study by including other programs.
