Happy Saturday to us all! It is gloomy today; it rained hard last night too. The lawn is getting greener now because grass is growing.
I am enjoying my responsibility as a mother to my son. I woke up early to prepare breakfast because he will attend an activity in school at 7:30AM.
My son still does his tasks like throwing the garbage outside in front of the gate which is due for collection later. He also sweeps the poop of the dogs in the garden.
He is enthusiastic with his offline work, and he is thinking too about prioritizing his school work and writing content materials for his online job. Surely he won’t stop his content writing, he said. It is a way for him to master the English language.
Yesterday, I asked him what they did in school. “I was called by the VP during a meeting with the other newly hired teachers, Ma”, he replied. Did you answer?, I asked him. “Yes, Ma, I answered her in English”.
I think it is expected of a person teaching Philosophy to be well-versed in the universal language. I think my son can do that.
Do you have a happy Saturday?

@ridingbet I think I need to step up in speaking the language. It all started when I started to teach Korean students before.

@Shavkat that is so right. so, from now on, even in FB chats, let us speak or type in English 'na lang', okay?

yes. he really wants to teach in classroom setting but he opted to wait for the right time so he too masters degree in teaching.now that he needs just one semester (he just left to pay for his tuition fee), he is now employed as a teacher in the school where i am also employed.

yes, he will on Monday. he said he was the one who did the course outline for the whole subject of Philosophy. i am aware that he has some who will join him teach the subject but he said the other teachers are fresh graduates with Bachelor of Science in Education degree, not Philosophy like my son.
