GABAY GURO: educators' well deserved perks!

My mom is retiring next year and i think that she really contributed well in the development of students. She teaches in the elementary department of St. Scholastica's Academy in Marikina and pupils look up to her as a fun teacher and most of the alumni even refer to her as a very understanding and lovable teacher. I think the way that she raised us is how she developed her students. She makes everything easy to understand. Mothers are often thankful with her teaching because their children receive high grades and performs well in school.

A good person deserves good things in life. And for a good teacher like my mom, she deserves a GABAY GURO membership from PLDT and SMART Foundation. Gabay-Guro is a social responsibility program for the teachers who are good examples of heroism and dedication to work. And so to pay tribute with the industriousness of our teachers, a membership to Gabay Guro will provide them good perks allowing them to enjoy privileges like pampering, wellness and shopping. They can also enjoy the internet because the foundation is putting up broadband connection in public schools which makes teaching and learning easier and faster. It comes with a Tribute Card which provides access to the teachers in the perks that they are given.

Other perks with Gabay Guro is that they can also have scholarships, educational trainings for improving the learning quality, livelihood programs and there's a big event for teachers during Teacher's Day!

SENIOR YEAR movie review

most of us have went through the toughest times in high school. but we all also admit that even though we have the most difficult endeavors with the teachers and even classmates, we can say that we enjoyed that period in our lives.

that's what we can see in SENIOR YEAR - a movie by Jerrold Tarog. it features students in co-ed institution that undergo certain circumstances as an individual. in life, we experience pressure, encounter gossips, bullied, rotting relationships, love and sometimes, confusion. but as we are struggling, we find people who are there to support us, that know how to get out of it, resolve it and move on.

in every aspect, there is a certain attack and will make you realize that you've been in that part. you can certainly relate to what these children portray. actually, the acting is seamless and effortless. sometimes i see myself in the shoes of these kids. and then i realize that i survived high school and i laugh at the instances that i can relate to.

and 10 years after our graduation in high school, i am excited of how people come about with their lives. reunion might be not to far and there are a lot of things happened after that time.

the cast is composed of the students of a school in Alabang with the participation of professional actors like RJ Ledesma, Dimples Romana, LJ Reyes, Arnold Reyes, Che Ramos and Ina Feleo.

SENIOR YEAR starts screening in SM Cinemas nationwide on March 9. and teachers and students who will watch the movie can get a discount. just present your SCHOOL ID and pay only Php 100 in entrance.

CHED Chairman don't approve in PUP tuition fee increase

this morning as i've seen and heard on the news, the Commission on Higher Education (CHED)Chairman Emmanuel Angeles announced that he will block any action regarding the PUP tuition fee increase. i hope so. but since to the rising prices, the Php 12 current tuition per unit in PUP would not be enough to sustain all projects and activities of the university. it would provided that the subsidy for PUP education will be increased so that it will provide the needs of the university.

i don't know about this, but still, PUP has Board of Regents that will decide on the increase. i hope that the increase may be gradual and would help the people adjust.
