Meanwhile, The Philippines got the lowest ranking last 2018 and 2019 Program for

where all sectors should scrutinize the quality education that is needed to be developed
and improved.
According to Rodrigues (2012), It does matter how mathematics and other subjects are
taught to students. By the use of adult learning principles and best practices is the key
for student's success. Mathematics anxiety is addressed like how anxiety can have
RELATED STUDY
Mathematics anxiety. According to Dowker, Sarkar, and Looi (2016), some aspects of
the mathematics anxiety level of students with learning difficulties in math is not
different from low math students. It is a problem that can affect the academic
students. Emotional aspects stood the highest score related to math anxiety, followed
by environmental and assessment factors with no difference between male and female
students.
Dowker, Sarkar, and Looi (2016) explained that one possible reason for mathematics
anxiety is the stereotype threat. The stereotype that males are usually better in
mathematics than females. They concluded that due to gender stereotyping, some tend

THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
This research was based on the theory of Willingham and Beilock (2012). It was defined
that mathematics anxiety as mental disorganization to some people when they are
given a task to solve for mathematical problems. People who feel uneasiness,
apprehension, and fear involving math are likely to have mathematics anxiety.
According to their study, there is a relationship between anxiety and efficacy. Some
countries who joined Program for International Student Assessment ranked low. It is an
evidence that there are students who are incompetent or less proficient with
mathematics subject.
It is still according to Beilock, there are probability that some Science, Technology,
Engineering, and Mathematics students cannot enter into their preferred majors due to
fear of mathematics. However, there are some cases that even the students with an
interest in Mathematics major still tend to drop out because of a lack of ability or
The results of this study are greatly beneficial to Gr-11 Science, Technology,
since it will be helpful in their education and learning. In addition to this, students who
want to take this Academic Track in Senior Highschool and educators will benefit as
well, for they will get to overcome the influence of Mathematics Anxiety to academic
