Institutional factors and teaching performance at a university in southern Lima, 2025

Abstract

Introduction. teaching performance is a key element in the quality of higher education. Institutional factors such as organizational climate, infrastructure, and administrative management strongly influence teachers’ effectiveness and students’ academic outcomes. Methodology. a quantitative, correlational, and non-experimental study was conducted with 120 professors from a private university in Lima Sur in 2025. Data were collected through validated surveys with a Cronbach’s alpha of 0.89. Results. descriptive results indicated that 72.5% of professors perceived infrastructure as a determinant of performance, while 68.3% emphasized the role of organizational climate. Linear regression analysis showed that institutional factors explained 61.4% of the variance in teaching performance (R² = 0.614, p < 0.01). Conclusion. institutional factors significantly influence teaching performance. Strengthening infrastructure, fostering a positive organizational climate, and improving administrative management are recommended to enhance academic quality.
