ABSTRACT
The Mother Tongue-Based Multilingual Education (MTB-MLE) has already
been implemented in the Philippines for nine years, and with the arrival of a new
language policy comes the emergence of many challenges influencing its
execution. The authors provide a full explanation of the elements influencing the
implementation of this linguistic policy in this study. The researchers' purpose is
to collect and evaluate enough data on implementation challenges, tactics
utilized by educators in teaching the learning areas in the students' first language,
and teacher acceptability of the MTB-MLE implementation. This experiment
established that teachers are the most important factor in the success of a
language program. Their attitude toward implementation, teaching tactics, and
instructional materials used all contribute to the success of MTB-MLE objectives.
