Question: which method is better with flashcards, “English first” or “Filipino first”?
 
Which one is more effective and useful for learning?

I use Anki for my flash cards, and it has a "bidirectional" option, so that with a single card, it will ask both for the Tagalog given the English and conversely. I always/ use Tagalog first ("front" as Anki calls it) for consistency, but in this case either works.

I like to go "Tagalog first" for my first try of a set, then use "Mixed".
 
Also, you ought to look at examples for each word whenever they're available.
In Tagalog.com's flash-card interface, you should see a button labelled "Examples" on the bottom-left corner of the Tagalog side of each card.
I didn't need to mention that, but perhaps it might help.
