Abstract : This qualitative phenomenological study examined the experiences, coping mechanisms, and educational insights gleaned by eight elementary school teachers in Tibungco District, Division of Davao City as they built a strong foundation for 21st century learners. Themes of their experiences that were identified included promoted critical thinking, fostered collaboration, and engaged parents. Coping mechanisms employed were committing to lifelong learning, engaging parents and community, and cultivating critical thinking. Educational insights included nurturing social and emotional skills, promoting lifelong learning habits, and fostering critical thinking as a foundational skill These findings highlight the diverse skills in cultivating strong foundations in learners effectively. Furthermore, exploring teachers' experiences not only contributes to a nuanced understanding of modern teaching demands but also provides valuable insights for both educators and educational institutions, potentially leading to improvements in classroom management and cultivating strong foundations among modern learners. The study holds potential for publication in respected research journals.
