Teacher Sol's Photo Album
I call myself an accidental Special Educator, because it wasn’t my plan to be in this field. I finished BS Family Life and Child Development in the Philippine’s most prestigious University. My childhood dream was to become a doctor. And I was in medicine proper, in full scholarship, when I realized I was called for another profession. I may have failed everybody but I did not fail myself, I believe I am now in a better position. I am a proud Special Education Teacher. I don’t look after people’s physical health but the children’s mental health. I don’t dissect people’s brain but their minds. I don’t open people’s hearts but I am able to touch their hearts. Most importantly, I am able to save their lives in a different way. I expect myself to hold on to my advocacy of making a big difference in my students' lives. Working with exceptional children made me realize that, just like the regular children, they need attention and someone to make them feel important. I am willing to be the professional teacher who would fill-in the hole in their hearts. If only they would let me. My guiding principle in life: "TOUGH TIMES NEVER LAST BUT TOUGH PEOPLE DO".
