Abstract
Abstract This phenomenological inquiry explored the experiences of the teachers in developing analytical skills of students at San Roque District, Division of Davao City. I employed the qualitative phenomenological study in exploring the experiences of the ten (10) participants of which primary instrument of data gathering was through in-depth interview. Results indicated that after analyzing the responses of the participants, the following were the emergent themes: establishment of analytical learning environment, thorough understanding of the subject, and enhancement of logical thinking. Furthermore, on the participantscoping mechanisms adopted, the emerging themes were utilizing different teaching strategies and intensifying analytical thinking activities. Finally, the themes that emerged with regard to their insights in developing the studentsanalytical skills were promote academic success of students, improve problem solving ability, and strengthen analytical skills in the curriculum. It implies that learners may become more self-assured and confident by developing their analytical thinking skills. Because of this approach to thinking about data, they are aware that the outcome is the product of a line of reasoning that generates genuine outcomes. Also, keep in mind that students do, in fact, learn from their errors, which is very important both in their personal and professional life. Additionally, analytical thinking consists mostly of analyzing data and information. Having these abilities will allow you to better analyze data and arrive at informed conclusions. In addition to fostering new patterns of introspection, contemplation, and investigation, the cultivation of critical thinking skills may propel students into really transformative educational adventures. Students who have honed these abilities are better equipped to critically analyze questions of authority and to advocate for systemic reform. Keywords: analytical skills, generalist teachers, phenomenology, Davao City
