Abstract: The Jigsaw method is revolutionizing classrooms into dynamic spaces of cooperation and learning. By fostering peer learning and individual responsibility, this pedagogical strategy cultivates a robust environment in which students thrive. This study examined both the challenges and benefits, using a phenomenological framework. Data was collected through interviews with six English teachers from various institutions in the Santa Elena province, using open-ended questions to capture their perceptions and experiences of using Jigsaw in classrooms. The results revealed incredibly positive experiences by teachers. Jigsaw method it worked as an excellent collaborative learning tool, significantly improving reading skills. The study revealed that, despite some implementation challenges, this method has considerable potential to foster a cooperative and inclusive learning environment. These insights can inform educational practices, encouraging more widespread adoption to boost learners’ engagement and learning outcomes. This will help educators adapt this innovative teaching strategy in modern education, suggesting that such approaches can significantly enrich the learning experience and prepare students for diverse real-world environments.
