About Me
I'm a writer, a teacher, a curriculum developer, and a lay-out artist of school publications. I have a degree in Bachelor of Secondary Education, Major in English and Master of Arts in Education, Major in Educational Management. I tried another world totally different from teaching by enrolling in Juris Doctor since being a lawyer was part of my dream. However, after finishing several units, it dawned on me that my dream is different from what I wanted to accomplish in reality. So, off I went to continue what I have started in the academe and continued reaping teaching and coaching awards which totaled to almost 300 as of the moment.
​
After my teaching stint in two Asian countries, I am currently venturing in another learning environment packed with everything I learned. Western Education is definitely different but all learning situations are the same in the whole world. Unbeknownst to us, there’s this teacher who is struggling to finish all the preparation for classroom lessons and required paper works or a student who is fraught with the stress of ‘knowing’ everything after an hour or so of instruction. Take a halt. This site will give you the needed refuge to the demands of school in a more personal level.
WHO AM I?
​
Who am I go deeper than my professional qualification. It is a paradox that I have looked at myself in deeper perspective only now after more than three decades of existence. I guess, this is a fraction of who am I. The ‘I’ is often ignored because ever since I could remember ‘we’ and ‘they’ hold more responsibilities since they denote more number of people involved.
As a person, I hold true in my heart the most important thing in life, which is leaving a lasting impression of morality and sincerity. With the combination of these two virtues, I am bound to have a life well lived. I do not claim a saintly- life. As a human being, I know that I am fallible. No space can accommodate for details of the mistakes I have done in my life. However, I can claim that the two main ingredients of a contented life are deeply planted in my heart and clearly define who am I as a person.
Being a teacher for me is evidently elucidated in the speech of one of my top students. A teacher embodies the value of her untold influence. It does not merely mean teaching per se but bringing dawn of understanding in the minds and opening hearts for greater yearning to learn. Further, he explicated that through me, he learned the importance of initiative and generosity. That is exactly what a teacher must be. Generous in sharing everything she has even if it means getting drained in the process. The real essence of teaching is creating greater individuals. Probably, bigger than what a teacher is. I can claim with utmost certainty that my former students will be better in their chosen fields in the future. Some seeds last long and I am glad as a teacher to be one of those responsible in planting tiny seeds of knowledge and virtues. Their feats are affirmations of my essence as a teacher.
WHERE AM I?
With the seemingly endless possibilities and changes being thrown to us in this age of technological evolution, I think it is no wonder why I sometimes feel lost in a shuffle. In a social context, I find it incomprehensible that a person may bully her way to fame using the aid of 21st century ways of communication and get away with it easily.
My classroom is usually filled with openness when it comes to ideas. I believe that aside from providing conducive environment for learning, the teacher must also give the students opportunities to express themselves without inhibitions. Though I get so strict at times, I make sure it is within reasons.
Where am I then? At the heart of the dreams I have carefully woven for many years.
WHAT’S NEXT?
Ever since I started teaching, I have this very strong conviction to give only the best in this field. Thus, I purge myself to the point of exhaustion hoping nothing but giving what the students deserve whenever they go to school. This site is my next venture. Reaching teachers and students no matter where they are in the world.
