The study explains that the learning channels mostly employed during the pandemic were television stations, school on-air radio programs, virtual learning, and private teaching. The findings revealed that respondents had no preference for specific perceptual learning styles but embraced the different learning channels employed. They modified their learning styles and developed flexibility in learning. A recommendation is provided that new viable policies that promote diverse learning opportunities and alternative learning strategies capable of mitigating present and future academic obstructions should be made and diligently implemented. This paper concludes that during future emergencies, diverse learning platforms, channels, and digital media employed for learning should cater to students' learning styles: visual, auditory, tactile, kinesthetic, group, and individual. It is noteworthy that learners would learn better if exposed to a variety of teaching/learning media ER -
