Filipino Teachers Shining Like Stars in Cambodia
W ho would have thought that someone like me would ever be quoted in one of the most prestigious newspapers in the Philippines? A couple of months ago, Mylene’s aunt conducted an email interview for her article about Filipino teachers working in Cambodia and I was lucky enough to be included in her list. You can read it in Inquirer or just by clicking this link. Now that the article’s printed out and was read by millions all over the country and the world, I realized quite a few things, here they are: 1. Filipinos are naturally talented and skillful. Wherever we may be – in or out of Philippines, we can be a star and shine brightly in our chosen career. Kaya naman gustung gusto tayo ng mga employers dahil alam nila na kaya nating gawin ang trabaho...
Cambodia International Academy Gives Back
W hen your blessed with many things, it is always good to share it with others. Last March19, Saturday, twenty one street kids were able to receive love from the students of Cambodia International Academy. CIA’s Student Council had raised money from our previous Family Day activity in December and they have decided to use partial of their earnings to give some help to less fortunate kids in the city. There were foods, drinks, games, and gifts for the street children to enjoy. They swam and played in the pool while the rest were having fun in the soccer field. The students and other school staff also joined the event in making it meaningful and memorable. I have learned that those children were forced by their parents to go out the streets and work the...
First Day High
1 3 September was the first kick off of Cambodia International Academy for SY 2010-11. More than 500 students came to attend their first classes and that includes my children Andrea and Aaron. It has been a very busy week organising every single details in my class. Prep is also tedious, especially now that I am teaching three levels of sciences. Challenging is the right word and I am beginning to love my job more than ever before. The classes that I have are very extra ordinary. Unique in so many ways and so different from the previous ones. I am sure that this year’s gonna be a lot of fun! Going back to Andrea and Aaron, so far they’re having great time coping at their new school, meeting new friends, and improving study habits. It’s too early...
Cambodia International Academy went to Kirirom
F eb. 26, 2010 – Cambodia International Academy headed to Kirirom Hill Side Resort for the annual educational field trip together with more than 300 students from kindergarten classes up to grade 9. The start of the trip was a bit chaotic with all the unnecessary changes in the bus list, students without their name on the roster, not enough seats in the bus, and others that should have been avoided if the admins have anticipated these things happening. Anyway, my blog is not all about that! It’s my first time to be at Kirirom together with my husband Nestle, he came with me because he’s after the Chambok waterfalls which is up in the mountain, but sadly, we didn’t go there as the trails are quite dangerous. In the resort, you can do quite a...
