Challenges are affecting teachers in different facets of education such as language differences between teachers and students, insufficient resources, unparalleled learning materials and lack of trainings. These challenges were identified as factor that clogged learnings and incapacitated the skilled and talented educators hence, strategies are made to overcome these challenges. These strategies involved research, resourcefulness, contextualization and localization of materials, and providing a pool of activities for learners are entailed to have helped educators succeed over the challenges.
