Teachers for Life - My Teacher's Month Tribute
Teacher Ellen Macaraeg.
That beautiful name. She is one of my teachers for life.
I remember when I was young at Kalalake Elementary School when in class (and where I met my class friend, Elaine), You would help me understand every lesson and every study that sometimes I have never finded out before the evolution of Google, Facebook groups and Group Messaging started to rise. Even though I just run around the school (just quietly) while some of the students are studying. And after all that, I ended up with I must say, my worst toilet call I have weirdly done in my whole life. (Sorry teacher! ✌๐) And in an arts and crafts project, I decided to give back to you by making a paper crown fit for a simple teacher like you. It may not be as shining and grand like a royal crown, it's more of a simple gift that I cherish with you because I, with the other students in our school know that you are Our Queen. ๐๐๐๐ I myself, have some little imperfections out of the school... Whether its good or bad. Sometimes I stumble from the ground after class, Sometimes I go to the school stage just to show my ideas and talents (And that's the reason why I sang a Filipino song in front of dozens of people without fright in their school's beauty pageant), and when the class is over, I do a little double time by cleaning the school for the next set of students. Yes, You know about erasing notes in the blackboard and how coconut shells are actually used to clean floors for sure.
Actually, I want to share the one punishment that I wish, I just simply wish, It would never happened to the other teachers and students everywhere. FACING THE WALL while you're in tears and knowing that sometimes, IT'S ALSO YOUR FAULT. ๐ข๐ฉ๐ฅ
Despite this, I still have a lot of great bonding time with these teachers at SINAG. And I'm sure, some of the other students with their special needs may also have that rich experience too.
They are some of my teachers that teached me beyond borders at that school.
I realized that, Teachers are simply working hard not only for us students, but also for their own students — their family.
Even if their salary is a bit small, Most of the teachers want to save their cash all for the future of their own children in their family. — And I wish my teachers have done the same way too.
The last time I see Teacher Macaraeg was in Ulo ng Apo in Olongapo City (We're near Jollibee when we last met) with my mom. And I don't want to lose the moment with her by capturing her in my Nokia cellphone before. And I still have her old cellphone number until now.
To my teachers, If you might read this letter, You are such an inspiration to me. Thank you for being my helpers, my guide leaders, and my second parents at class.
Even though I never finished at school, You had still become the me that I was today.
I wish that we will see each other again and have more time to each other. I really miss you all from the bottom of my heart. ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐
And for the other pinoy teachers not only in the Philippines, but also in the world, I salute and thank you from the bottom of my heart. You are the one symbol and the new role models of today's fast-growing generation. Keep achieving what you have achieved before and always be calm at the same time.
For the millennials, Respect and Honesty are still the best and the most important policies for every teacher. Respect them like how we respect our grandparents, our parents, our cousins, our workmates, our classmates, our visitors and guests, just about anyone.
And again, Be honest and tell the truth at the same time. Because teachers would sometimes be too strict to us when it comes to following the rules inside and outside the school! ๐๐๐
Happy Teacher's Month and Happy Teacher's Day to all of our Pinoy Teachers everywhere!— You are Our Teachers for Life! ๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐
