This research aims to describe the teachers lived experiences during the modular distance learning modality implementation on selected schools from the three (3) districts of Bohol in the academic year 2021-2022. The study used descriptive phenomenology that utilized a semi-structured interview. The purposive sampling among 15 selected teachers was the studys key informant. It utilizes Colaizzis (1978) strategy in interpreting and analyzing the data. The study revealed that the overlapping of workloads and the equipment functionality were two the most common problems the teachers encountered during the modular learning modality implementation. They need human resources and well-functioning equipment to aid them in their work. The teacher had difficulty transporting modules in remote areas, resulting in some late claiming, and submitting the learning modules. Based on the findings, it was concluded that teachers had experienced various issues and challenges in modular distance learning modalities.
