Description The pursuit of excellence is a concern of Philippine higher education. In its quest for excellence, higher education in the Philippines must therefore be able to harness the potential of a person to the fullest extent, so that one may be able to discharge his roles in the society to the best of his ability. This study postulates that educational mangers of Institutions of Higher Education utilize the roles of educators as architect, composer, facilitator, friend, futurist, informant, manager, model, monitor, and student in order to attain quality teaching and learning, efficiency and effectiveness in carrying out their respective mandates. The main objective of the study was to assess the teaching roles, strategies, problems, prospects and needs of educators in Mindanao State University in Tawi-Tawi using descriptive quantitative study. The researcher formulated and revised set of questionnaires for the purpose patterned from Zwaenepoel (1995), and Hajilan (1998). As a result, educators’ role being performed during classroom activities was properly applied and these are ranked from highest to lowest, namely: facilitator, model, manager, informant, architect, composer, futurist, friend, monitor, and student. Educators’ strategies were innovative, flexible, evocative, and skill-oriented. The prospects, problems, and needs encountered by educators in teaching activities are as follows: financial support, school plant and facilities, books and instructional materials, faculty and staff development, and student development became obstacles and roadblocks to achieve efficient and effective teaching. Pearson correlation analysis indicated that demographic profile: age, sex, civil status, religion, monthly income, teaching experience in years, and highest educational attainment were significantly related to educators’ performance in teaching. Stepwise regression analysis of independent variable revealed that teaching skills and strategies were significantly related to the performance of educators. Stepwise regression analysis on the role of educators resulted to three out of ten roles: as a student, architect and as informant being significantly related to their performance in college teaching at 0.05 and 0.01, respectively.
