It's the 4th of the New Year and I find myself unbelievably caught in an exciting adventure... to steem in order to learn, share, touch other people's lives, and build friendship. Indeed, life is beautiful! I cannot thank enough my cousin for bringing me here, for allowing me to meet new Steemians, for giving me the opportunity to learn and share what this beautiful world has to offer.
I love being here. As a professional teacher, I love teaching at the same time learning from others. Having been raised and settled in different places in the Philippines with diverse cultures, I find it interesting to explore places and learn more from people.
Before I started my teaching profession, eight years of my life after graduation in college was devoted to development work. I was connected with an international non-government organization (INGO) focusing on children. My passion to help improve children's lives paved the way for my teaching career. While working in the INGO, I have to travel to Cebu City, Philippines on a weekend for a year to earn a degree in education.
And now, it is with great pride that for five years in the teaching profession, I have touched the lives of thousands of children. I wish to continue my passion to help the young ones. And I'm sure that what I will learn here at Steemit will be beneficial to my teaching career and to me as a person.
Life is indeed beautiful! Thanks for reading.
