The shift to distance learning has created unique perspectives and challenges to educational stakeholders specifically among teachers who are tasked with keeping teaching and learning on track despite their professional, technical, and personal concerns, and inadequate familiarity to the new learning modality. While these realities have been challenging the capability of teachers, they also open the doors for opportunities of levelling up to a new education landscape and harnessing potentials which may be useful for the furtherance of the teaching practices. The present qualitative study aims to document Science teachers’ perspectives, challenges and opportunities in the teaching of Science courses during the pandemic. It consists of the various insights, initiatives, coping strategies and actions, and opportunities of eight Filipino Science teachers towards securing a responsive and efficient learning management in the midst of the unforeseen challenges in the education sector brought by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
