—— This quantitative research, using a descriptive design, is conducted to assess the Bachelor of Secondary Education Department’s extension activity. It sought to determine the beneficiaries’ assessment of the BSED extension activity when taken as a whole and classified by age, sex, and beneficiary type. This study was conducted in the academic year 2021-2022 and involved the language teachers and Grade 10 students of Valerio P. Palmares National High School. The data were collected using a validated researcher-developed checklist. The statistical tools used were frequency counts, percentages, mean, standard deviation, and the Mann-Whitney U test. The level of significance was set at the 0.05 alpha level. The results revealed that the beneficiaries’ assessment of the extension projects was ‘good’ when considered as a whole and classified by sex, age, and beneficiary type. However, no significant difference was found in the level of assessment of the BSED Department extension activity across sex, age, and beneficiary type. The activity was conducted with the primary purpose of enhancing the reading comprehension strategies of language teachers working with Grade 10 students, which the proponents deemed very vital. With new knowledge, insights, and skills gained from the activity, the language teachers were able to even polish their craft in teaching reading comprehension, as issues faced by the Grade 10 students in this area were given remediation and intervention, making the teaching-learning process enjoyable and meaningful. Presently, they still use the skills they learned from this activity in teaching their students, especially when the lesson requires understanding or comprehension of the text or selection read. It is therefore recommended that the Bachelor of Secondary Education Department continue to design and implement extension activities such as these to improve further not only the teacher’s skills but more importantly the students in general.
