This presents the methods and procedures the researchers used to have relevant findings for
the study. Especially, this includes research design, locate, population and samples, data gathering and
procedures, escope and limitation, research instruments and statistical treatment.

3.1 Research Design

This study made use of the quantitative type research employing descriptive survey of the
research in the conduct of the study.

Quantitative research design is the standard experimental method of most scientific disciplines.
These experiments are sometimes referred to as true science, and use traditional mathematical and
statistical means to measure results conclusively. Quantitative experiments all use a standard format,
with a few minor inter-disciplinary differences, of generating a hyphothesis to be proved or disproved.
This hyphothesis must be provable by mathematical and statistical means, and is the basis around which
the whole experiment is designed (Shuttleworth, n.d)

While descriptive research methods are pretty much as they sound – they describe situations.

They do not make accurate predictions ( Hale, 2018). Descriptive research is a study designed to depict
the participants in an accurate way. More simply put, descriptive research is all about describing people
who take part in the study (Kowalczyk , 2018)

This questionare is divided into two (2) parts: Part 1- What is the effect of peer tutoring on the
tutee’s Academic Performance, and Part 2- The cause of peer tutoring

3.7 Statistical Measurement

The following statistical tools were use:

1. For sub-problem number one on the quantity of the tutee’s, percentage as used with the formla:

1. p= ( nf ) x 100
Where P= percentage

f=frequency

n=total of the respondents

1. For sub-problems number two on Impact Of Peer Tutoring on Academic Performances As

Percieved by the Selected LCNHS Students”. Reapectively, weighted mean was utilized wiyh
the formula below:

WM=(¿ ¿

Where:WM= weighted mean

f= frequency
w= weighted scale
n= total number of the respondents
