Abstract

Student achievement plays a vital role in establishing a strong academic foundation and cultivating essential life skills for the future. One instructional model that supports the development of these competencies is personalized learning. A qualitative research approach was employed, involving Mathematics teachers as the primary informants. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation.
