i volunteered for a summer education program not knowing that the students would be interns.  when i signed up for the task, i was thinking that i would teaching new hires of the company.  so when i was informed that i was chosen from the list of volunteers, i was ecstatic.  and then they said that it was going to be for interns - college students - from la salle and i was like HUWAT!  i had two options:  decline because after all saying yes would mean i would have to miss two meetings on friday  or just give it a go laban lang ng laban when an opportunity knocks.

i enjoyed myself immensely, extremely tired at the end of the day but still looking forward to do it again the next day.  for those two days i was up at 4:30 in the morning so i won’t be late for class.  kulang pa sa tulog because i prepare the night before for the class.  that’s how excited i am.  i don’t think i’ve been that excited to do something in a long time. 

i was deeply concerned of course about my students.  it was my first time to handle such a class.  i was concerned that i lack expertise and teaching experience, and that would affect what they’ll learn.  the feedback is good news naman.  i got very high marks so i guess that answers my concern.  i am very thankful that they were generous in the ratings they provided but i have to admit that i think i could have done better.  i still have a long way to go if a career in the academe is what i want in the future.
