Abstract In the dynamic educational setting, where challenges and uncertainties are the norm, the resilience of teachers becomes not just a personal strength but a critical asset for sustaining the quality of learning. This study examined teachers' resilience levels and coping strategies in the Tupi 3 District, South Cotabato. Using a quantitative approach, the research utilized descriptive and correlational methods with 48 public elementary school teachers as respondents. Using the descriptive correlation design, the study revealed that most teachers were 25-30, predominantly female, with 2-6 years of service. Many teachers commute 1-5 km to school, mostly teaching Blaan learners. Teachers exhibited moderate resilience, with scores reflecting moderate control, ownership, reach, and endurance. The level of coping strategy was high. Positive self-talk, time management and self-care, social support, professional support, and problem-solving. The analysis of variance revealed that age significantly influenced resilience, while professional achievement affected coping strategies. Correlation analysis identified self-care as the strongest factor contributing to overall resilience. In contrast, time management showed weak correlations with resilience. The findings suggest teachers' resilience is best nurtured through self-care, problem-solving, and social support strategies.
