Learning Mathematics is essential to students, as it can develop them in terms of analyzing and reasoning skills which are fundamental in everyday life. Due to changes like the COVID-19 pandemic that triggered the shift in the learning modality of the students and learning environment, this major shift impacts the teaching-learning process, specifically the students’ academic performance. The purpose of this study is to determine how the students did in the learning of mathematics subject, considering that virtual/online learning became a big challenge during the Covid19 pandemic. The descriptive research design was utilized using the survey questionnaire based on the Most Essential Learning Competencies (MELCs) in Mathematics Grade Eight (8) for School Year 2021-2022. The result of this study showed that the mathematics skills of students in the eighth grade during the pandemic were developed to a moderate extent only. Home factors, as well as the attitude and interest of students toward Mathematics, emerged as the primary problems of the teachers in delivering Math lessons in a remote learning modality. Finally, factors such as poor internet connection or internet access, poor study habits, and distance learning affected the student’s academic performance in mathematics.
