The study of using Mother Tongue-Based Language (MTBL) in remediation on Least Learned Competencies in Elementary Mathematics to two sections in Grade VI at Tambo Central School was carried out. Both groups were exposed to team-assisted individualized remediation. The data needed for this study were obtained through 30-item achievement test and seventeen (17) Learning Materials constructed by the researcher which were construct-validated and evaluated by mathematics experts. Identified competencies of the materials were based on the National Achievement Test result and in the K to 12 Curriculum on Rational Numbers. The findings of the study revealed that the use of MTBL in team-assisted individualized remediation evidently improved the performance of the respondents in the three competencies on fractions namely comprehension of fractions; multiplication of fractions and its applications; and division of fractions and its applications.
