Abstract : This study aimed to explore the implementation of E-learning methodology based on the perspective of TLE teachers. This study employed a phenomenological research design which aims to determine the experiences and perceptions of the seven (7) participants. Three themes emerged from the experiences of TLE teachers in implementing the E- learning methodology. The three themes were flexibility and convenience, delayed communication and unavailability of technical support from teachers. Meanwhile, on the coping mechanism of teachers the themes generated were willing to take professional development, addressing technical problems at a different angle and utilizing more mechanisms towards efficient communication. Further, the following are the themes generated from the insights drawn from the experiences of the teachers which were realistic optimism, provision of authentic learning, and collaboration and cooperation. The results implied that school administrators design teachers’ readiness program on E-learning methodology based on the empirical results of this study. Moreover, the results generated provided comprehensive data in conducting future research with similar or relevant scope. This will yield advantageous findings tailored to the organization and hierarchical context of the education sector.
