THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
Conceptual Literature
On the Mother Tongue- Based Education Instructor
Mother Tongue-Based Education (MTBE) is a curriculum and
teaching methodology that enables learners to participate well in
education through the use of their first language. MTBE provides a
strong foundation in the learners first language (L1), enabling them to
build on the knowledge and experiences they bring to the classroom.
MTBE is much more than just using the learners first language
to explain curriculum content.

classroom where they are required to speak in English. They are likely
to learn very little and to enjoy the learning process even less. They
will fail examinations and eventually dropped out. The use English as
the medium of instruction in our schools may also explain the lapse
into illiteracy among school dropouts who were taught to be literate in
English through rote memorization.

Carless (2008) explained that mother tongue may serve social
and cognitive functions. He argued that students working in groups do
not have to speak English all the time and use of mother tongue
relates to learner identity. As the use of mother tongue provides

On Length of Service
How can teachers be recruited and trained to deliver mothertongue based bi/ multilingual programmed suitable for young children
(i.e., under 8 years of age)? Recruitment of effective early childhood
care and development practitioners who are fluent in the mother
tongue of children in a community is critical for programmed
effectiveness and is perhaps the greatest challenge for implementing
mother tongue based bi/multilingual programmed for young children
and their families. Practitioners must be found with appropriate
knowledge and skill to deliver a play-based programmed that is
developmentally appropriate for very young children, and who are fully
fluent in L1. This is not always possible, and flexible solutions must be
encouraged to meet the needs of children and families in each
community.

variables in the study. The two boxes on the left show the gender II
pupils and the length service of the Grade II teachers, which are
independent variables of the study. The box on the right re

Definition of Terms
The following terms for the purpose clarity and comprehension,
the following terms are operationally defined on how they are used in

Basic sight words-In this study, this term refers tothe common
words usually known by the Elementary pupils.
Gender- In this study, this term refers to the biological classification
of the respondents into male and female.

CHAPTER III
METHODOLOGY
This chapter describes the methods and procedures to be
followed in this research. This includes the research design, research
instruments, data gathering procedure and statistical treatment of the
data.
Research Design
This study made used of Descriptive Quantitative Research Design.
It sought to determine the preference of the Grade II Teachers on
Mother Tongue Based Education as to whether it would be effective to
the learning process of the Grade II pupils in their Vocabulary in basic
sight words.
This study underwent the following phase: (1) Conceptualization
of the problem and formulation of hypothesis, (2) Preparation and
construction on the instrument, (3) Validation of Research Instrument
and Pilot Testing, (4) Administration of the Questionnaires, and
(5)Analysing and Interpreting Data.
This is shown in figure 4.0

Research Instrument
This study the Likert scale questionnaire checklist is used to
facet the frequency of the respondents. It is used to measure the
perception of the English teachers based on the preference of teaching
Mother tongue Based Education in Grade II level. The questionnaires
were given to Grade II Teachers as a survey. While the Picture Cues
used for the pupils, it will be word translating. The questionnaire for
teachers consists of 20 statements while the picture cues for the pupils
also consists of 20 words in English need to be translated to their
36
mother tongue. The Grade II teachers were ask to rate each items on
5 point Likert Scale ranging 1 is equivalent (strongly agree) 2 (agree)
and 3 (neural) 4 (strongly disagree) 5 (disagree).

for pilot testing. The results were subjected to reliability test using
SPSS. It was found that all items for teachers and pupils were
reliable since it yielded reliability alpha of .864 for teachers and .
944 for pupils which were considered high in reliability value.
Hence, all items were retained.

Sir,
We, the undersigned Bachelor of Arts Major in English, fourth year students, would like to
seek permission from your good office to allow us to conduct our data gathering for the study
entitled, Mother Tongue Based Education Among Pupils and Teachers in Ayala Central School,
as our Major requirements in Thesis Writing. This study will determine the perceptions of the
English teachers and the influence on the learning process in basic sight words to the Grade II
Pupils from your school.
In this study, we will provide a twenty item survey checklist questionnaire to all English
Teachers from your school. This would be a great help in our data gathering and in accomplishing
our requirements.
Respectfully yours,
