Varied societal issues from poverty, unemployment, malnutrition, environmental degradation, etc. have been a universally growing epidemic in the past decades. The sad reality is, Philippines is among the most affected. Our adversities leave us feeling thankless, helpless, and hopeless. Many of us move on to other countries hunting for a more promising future so we can hand in some help to our families back home. We were hopeful for a happy ending to a never ending country’s privation.
I was a graduate of Office Management, then took English Education and venture the field of teaching English in Thailand. Little love is all I have got at first for my teaching profession. I have felt some degree of aversion towards Thais' nationalistic nature and hesitation to improving their English language. But when I end up being a Literacy Teacher in a bilingual school did I gradually realize the worth of my profession. And that's how my love story with DEVCOM begun. I'm more than happy this will be my fourth year in the Reading Project, designing and improvising the program's strategies to aid each reading level of our students. Our project has served its purpose and parents were more than happy of their children's attainment in the academic context as a whole.
They said that we, humans, are naturally born DEVCOM advocates, although many have not actively participated in public programs promoting helpful ways to alleviate existing issues, many have endeavored enough to improve their own personal lives and saving themselves from issues that affect them (like poverty). But if I have to look at myself in the presence of these societal issues, I would say with pride I have started being a catalyst for greater change a long time ago. I have fallen in love with education. Just like the project I'm working presently, I would strongly support any development for education concerning issues that would cause a dire change to any academic environment. And my love story with DEVCOM still continues with all its ups and downs.
Call me a catalyst for development, I'm born to be one among you.
