Being a teacher is a lot of fun! I get to hang out with my students, play with them, do art activities, etc. However, being a teacher can also be A LOT of work. We don’t just teach the kids for the sake of getting it done… we teach because we want our kids to learn. Teaching really is a WORK OF HEART. It’s something you can only do if it really is your passion. We don’t get paid by the numbers… we get paid by constant hugs from the kids and a simple thank you from their parents. As unpractical as that may sound, it really makes the job of a teacher so much more rewarding!
Which is why I am so PROUD that there is an event such as this to give proper recognition to the hard working and dedicated teachers from the Philippines! CONGRATULATIONS!!!
