Abstract: This qualitative study explores the lived experiences of Senior High School students as first-time researchers in the City Schools Division of Tanauan. With research as a crucial subject in the curriculum, most students struggle due to their lack of prior research exposure in Junior High School. The study utilized homogeneous purposive sampling, involving 40 students across four public schools. Data collection through questionnaires and observations revealed key challenges, including difficulties in finding related literature and group collaboration. However, the process also proved rewarding, with students citing new knowledge, personal growth, and academic skills improvement as valuable outcomes. Respondents suggested interventions like step-by-step guidance, increased research time, and access to free internet resources to enhance the research experience. The study highlights the need for structured support and skill-building opportunities to help first-time researchers navigate the complexities of academic research.
