Top 5 Thesis Topics on the Philippine Education Crisis

Source: GMA News Online

Let me convince you to make this a thesis.

Imagine waking up at 4 a.m. just to squeeze into a packed classroom where you're one of 60 students. You sit on a broken chair, if you're lucky. The teacher has no laptop. Your textbook is a photocopy. You go home at 9 p.m. and do it all again tomorrow. This is not fiction. This is the daily life of millions of students in this country. This is what we’ve normalized.

This isn’t just a shortage. This is sabotage.

There are 18.9 million functionally illiterate Filipinos. That’s not a number. That’s a national emergency. And it’s not just about students “not trying hard enough.” It’s because they’re trying to learn in classrooms that are falling apart, without books, without gadgets, and without enough teachers. We are expecting children to succeed in a system that was never built for them to win.

The truth? Education in the Philippines is not underfunded. It’s abandoned.

Get Your Thesis Title — or Keep Getting Rejected

Bestie, let’s stop pretending you’ve “got it covered.”

You’re here because:

• Your title keeps getting rejected

• You don’t know the difference between a “topic” and a “research gap”

• You’re guessing your way through something that decides your graduation

And let’s be real — you’ve already:
❌ Tried making titles from scratch
❌ Watched “How to Write a Thesis Title” TikToks
❌ Copy-pasted topics from other people's thesis (ooops?)

Still stuck? Exactly.

You don’t need more ideas.

You need a system.

That’s what the Thesis Toolkit gives you:

✅ YTB Thesis Title Booster – because you need legit, research-based topics based on current trends — not random ones na “maganda pakinggan.”

✅ Thesis Title Builder – because you keep forgetting na kailangan may survey source or research instrument ka rin, hindi lang title.

✅ Research Gap Finder – because most of your drafts get rejected for one reason: Walang gap.

YOU NEED THIS IF...

• You're tired of starting over

• You're afraid to open your adviser’s feedback

• You want a title, gap, and source na adviser-friendly and academically sound

This isn’t optional.
It’s either you use this toolkit...
or you keep wasting weeks writing titles na walang mapupuntahan.
