Abstract: The main aim of this study was to examine how work-related challenges faced by female teachers who are primary earners in their families influence their teaching performance. The study involved 50 such teachers from Palimbang II District, Palimbang, Sultan Kudarat. Data was collected through questionnaires, and statistical analyses such as weighted mean, Pearson correlation coefficient (r), and t-tests were employed. The study followed a descriptive correlational survey approach. Findings revealed that respondents reported varying frequencies of encountering work-related challenges. On average, they agreed that these challenges were sometimes experienced. Regarding teaching performance, respondents were mainly rated as either excellent, very satisfactory, or satisfactory, with none rated below this level. The correlation coefficient (r) between the extent of work-related challenges and teaching performance was significant, indicating a notable influence on teaching effectiveness. In conclusion, respondents reported experiencing work-related challenges to varying degrees, which affected their teaching duties. Most demonstrated satisfactory teaching performance. The study confirmed a significant relationship between work-related challenges and teaching effectiveness.
