Kaingin System...A Disaster?

Kaingin system is the cutting down and burning of trees and plant growth in an area for cultivation purposes. Kaingin is a Filipino word that means clearing. Known as swidden farming in other countries, it is a traditional but destructive agricultural system practiced in many parts of the globe. 
Who says KAINGIN is bad? good? Comments please...

This is the Moment

Fourteen years experience of being a teacher is something that I can be proud of. See? I hold my patience for this long period of time...somehow funny? or by nature, teachers are really patient?

To become a teacher was really my dream when I was still in elementary education. Truly, dream come true.

I love my profession...I love my work..I love my students...I love school! That's why I'm still teaching up to now.

Most of my colleagues would say that I am super active and enthusiastic when it comes to my performance as teacher. Oooops...I just love what I'm doing. I work so hard not to please or impress others, instead I work so hard because of LOVE! Love for my work.

When given a task by my superior, I will accept it heartily without any doubts because I consider it as a challenge which I can learn new things and possibly a chance to improve my performance.

People may judge nor misinterpret my actions but I consider them again as one of the challenges in my profession.  They're part of our lives who made us stronger and braver. :-)
I prefer to work with people who performed well and work so hard than people who know everything but less actions.

November 15, 2014, the most memorable date for me because  all the hard works had paid off. I never dream nor expect to be recognized by the higher ups. I was chosen as 2014 REGION XI MOST OUTSTANDING SPG ADVISER. 


I truly believe that if there's love in your work, performance is the best!

The Manobo Tribe..Dream Big and Achieve More

e

The experience I had during our trip in Agusan had made me realized that POVERTY  is still a big problem in the Philippines. I have seen poeple particularly the Indigenous People in Agusan who are still left behind from what we experience in the city. Majority of this IP's are the Manobo. They must be given an attention by our government. Despite of all the sufferings, these people manage to keep their culture alive and even their way of living is somewhat amazing. 

So lucky that I was able to share the Women's group my ideas on how to run a cooperative since they are starting to build a small group and saving money for the welfare of the group members. 

If given a chance to handle and manage a foundation, I would probably choose AGUSAN as my project location particularly in AGUSAN MARSH, Municipality of Talacogon wherein I'd like to educate the women's group about PANGKABUHAY/LIVELIHOOD Project. 

Be an Innovative and Creative Teacher!

Are you a traditional teacher or modern teacher? How are you going to describe traditional teachers? modern teachers?
     Honestly speaking, I am a product of traditional teaching styles in my generation. but since I have the heart of willingness to learn new things, be taught and adapt changes...I'm proud to say that as teacher I'm able to merge these two styles; the traditional and modern styles of teaching. How about you fellow teachers?

Share and Learn

A true professional is willing to teach and share his skills and knowledge to others. He's not afraid to see others who accomplish more than what he accomplished in life. He would be the number one to feel happy if someone he trained becomes famous. It's nice if we also learn from others. Empty your mind and humble your self to accept learning from others.
Being a teacher, I also learn new things from my students. Sometimes, they amaze me with their opinions and reactions during our class discussions and open forum. A sad reality...Our students know more about technology than us, teachers.

Come on peps...share your thoughts too. I'll be happy and love reading it. :-)

Teachers on the Go..Express...Explore...Excel...Towards Quality Education

"Teachers on the Go...Express...Explore...Excel Towards Quality Education"

Teachers are the most important people in education industry. They are the keys to make learners into a better citizens of this country who could possibly be the hope of our nation to compete globally and become one of the richest countries in the whole world. But the question is how ready are we, educators? Are we open to changes when it comes to teaching strategies and techniques? Are we educated enough and updated to the latest technology in teaching? Are we making our learning competitive globally? Yes, I truly believe that teachers are always willing to accept challenges and changes in their career. Whether we like it or not, there is a need for us to upgrade our knowledge and skills when it comes to teaching styles to achieve the main goal we are aspiring for...QUALITY EDUCATION! Let's open to changes. because these changes would bring us to the next level of our education. eLearning is the best and latest trend in education and to integrate this in our classroom, surely, our learners become more interested, inspired and motivated to learn because of the new learning environment the may experience. Cheer up, teachers! Don't afraid to express...explore and excel!

Let your students experience more fun in school while they are learning.

My Fave Song

A Thousand Years

(Verse 1)
Heart beats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave
How can I love when I'm afraid
To fall
But watching you stand alone
All of my doubt
Suddenly goes away somehow

One step closer

(Chorus)
I have died every day
waiting for you
Darlin' don't be afraid
I have loved you for a
Thousand years
I'll love you for a
Thousand more

(Verse 2)
Time stands still
beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything
Take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath,
Every hour has come to this

One step closer

(Chorus)
I have died every day
Waiting for you
Darlin' don't be afraid
I have loved you for a
Thousand years
I'll love you for a
Thousand more

And all along I believed
I would find you
Time has brought
Your heart to me
I have loved you for a
Thousand years
I'll love you for a
Thousand more

One step closer
One step closer

(Chorus)
I have died every day
Waiting for you
Darlin' don't be afraid,
I have loved you for a
Thousand years
I'll love you for a
Thousand more

And all along I believed
I would find you
Time has brought
Your heart to me
I have loved you for a
Thousand years
I'll love you for a
Thousand more

Great Leaders of All Time!

The Moments of a Teacher

I'm already in my teaching profession for 15 years. For 15 years in the service both private and public schools experience, I was able to achieve something that paid off my undying services, dedication and commitment as teacher. I received awards and recognition of my performance being a teacher in different fields. These all happened because of working so hard without thinking of any in return. Teaching and serving kids with love, understanding and compassion give essence to my profession.

 I thank God so much for the greatest award I have ever received recognizing my performances being a teacher and a LEADER. It's one of a kind to be chosen and being the first one to be awarded as the 2014 REGION XI MOST OUTSTANDING SUPREME PUPIL GOVERNMENT ADVISER.

Teachers are leaders inside the classroom. They are considered the greatest leader among the leaders in the whole world because they are the one molding and shaping the young minds of every children who probably be the future leaders of their generation. The leaders who might be the key to solve the common challenges facing by the present leaders. Definitely not an easy task because you are dealing with different kind of individuals with different needs. (To be continued)
