It’s really nice to teach Philippine literature especially
if your students are analytical and vocal of their views. Indeed it’s not
always the teacher who provides the learning. Through give and take of well-thought
perceptions, both the students and the teacher yield cognitive empowerment.

There are several classroom-borne ideas that are worth
sharing here, but these three are the best ones for me.
ON HAVING A HOMOSEXUAL RELATIONSHIP. “When we talk about
love, we talk about loving the person. Not the gender. You love the person on
his or her entirety, not on his or her sexual preference.”
ON LIVING LIFE. “People live from B to D, meaning from Birth
to Death. But we should always remember that between B and D, we have C – and it
refers to Choices. In our lives, it is only C that can determine whether we’ll
be successful or not.”
ON BROKEN FAMILIES. “Even if the father and the mother no
longer live together, but as long as both of them provide love and affection to
their children, the kids will not feel neglected. The kids can still regard the
set-up as a family. Maybe not physically, but in substance.”
I’m excited of more jewels to dig up soon. Meanwhile, I’ll
be preparing test questions for their midterms tomorrow.
