Abstract : This study explored the out-of-the-classroom experiences of licensed teachers working in school offices. Eight (8) office workers were also licensed teachers who participated in the study coming from Poblacion Governor Generoso, Davao Oriental. This study made use of a phenomenological approach to extract the ideas of the teacher participants. The in- depth interview was employed to gather some information as regards their respective experiences. Using the thematic analysis, the following themes emerged about the experiences of the participants: the experiences of the licensed teachers working in offices were, working with loads of paper, being flexible with office work, and beating office deadlines. The coping mechanisms of the teachers were, embracing office realities, taking short breaks for relaxation, and seeking assistance from senior workers. The insights of the participants delved into two factors: Providing part- time jobs to licensed teachers and attending office- related training or seminars. For the college president or school heads to be more observant of the performance of their office workers. They should ensure that the office workers are performing their assigned tasks based on the expected results. The licensed teachers working in various school offices may be more responsive to the needs of their clientele.
