La Reconnaisance

God will always make a way, and will always provide for He knows what we need.

To God be the glory for He let us weather the storm and gave us the victory. 

It was never my dream to be a teacher but a priest. When I was a child, when I am with my playmates I always act as a priest or a teacher. During those childhood years, it never dawn on me, that I would be in this field of work. Since I put my foot on my first school, which is Jose Rizal College (now, Jose Rizal University) life has never been the same for me. Though I graduated as a Chemical Engineer, and worked for a manufacturing company in Manila and had a high salary, it doesn’t matter because I am happy with what I am doing now.

In school, I had a share with my students’ life; their problems: broken hearts, parents lack time with them, failing grades and lots more. I became to realize the importance of my work as a teacher. I do not only teach my subject but I put light in their world. I had filled the emptiness in their lives for they had someone who listens when they need someone to talk to. They had a shoulder to cry on. Someone whom they can lean on in times when a storm comes. It was never easy...When you give advises to these kids, you really have to weigh things out. You must always keep within the line or you might be misunderstood.

My eighteen years in this profession had made me where I am now. I have gained not only my students’ respect but also my colleagues. I really love being with my students...It’s like my home is school and i really love teaching, that even Saturdays and Sundays I go to school just to finish my work in my office. I just couldn’t finish these office work ‘coz I have to go to my class for my students’ sake. My students have been giving me the energy to keep with the pace of my work and be creative as i can be. I don’t have problems with my teaching and my students ‘coz I can always handle any situation. I just really thank God for giving me that side of me who can always deal with any kind...

I can say,God has been leading me where I must be. He let me take the road wherein I can find the happiness that I have right now. ...
