"Education: A Right and Not a Privilege"

 

 

        Many things has been change because of the COVID-19 pandemic that also causes the whole world to shut down. Last school year, schools here in the Philippines did not open and learning happened through online classes and distance learning. As a student, since it’s my first experience to do learning alone in a whole school year, I feel so exhausted and stressed during those times. There are times that I feel like I can’t continue studying anymore, that I can’t finish all my works in time and many more thoughts that made my energy down in the whole school year. I feel bad for myself because I did not adapt all the things that I need to learn that year because of the pressure I felt.


        The new normal of learning is really hard for us students because not all of us can access internet or sometimes we have slow connection, and also lack of gadgets to use especially to those students who are experiencing extreme poverty during this pandemic. Because of these reasons, many students did not get the opportunity to enroll, many of them stopped attending classes for a while and waiting for schools to open so that they can continue attending classes. Education is not only for privilege people, it’s a right that all people should have. Now, online classes and distance learning is still on going in our country while the whole world already open all of their schools.



        I hope by next school year, all schools in the Philippines will already re-open so that all students who wants to learn and study will have an opportunity to attend classes. Because I believe in a saying, that Education is a Right and not a Privilege. Education for all, lets learn together for the betterment of our future. Improvement of quality of education is needed, greater and equal opportunities for the nation's youth is what we wanted.

    We have the same thoughts! I commend you for being brave enough to express what you feel about online classes online. "Education is not only for privilege people, it’s a right that all people should have" I love this phrase from you!

"a moment to remember"

And now, our grade 10 journey is going to end in a few days, which means, junior high school life comes to an end too. It's been a wonderful moment, our beloved junior high school life. Learning, discoveries, improvements, and maturity throughout this phase of life. During the 4th quarter, we were able to have a chance to experience face to face learning again after 2 years of having distance learning. We were able to get that special experience and a wonderful moment for a short time. I was able to enjoy and appreciate the courage, strength and guidance of our teachers during this last quarter. The laughs, stories and short memories we made during this short time moment will truly and forever be with us. We were able to perform and make our own Frontpage during the 4th quarter in ICT with the guidance of our teacher, I was able to enjoy doing it, though we shared many laughs and smiles when we are creating our own front pages. This is it, the last quarter in 10th grade, the last c...

“To Learn: Overcome and Try"

  3 rd quarter is coming to end, time really moves so fast. One more quarter to finish and my Grade 10 journey will going to end already. Another learning experiences, challenges and discoveries.   The feeling that I have felt during the 3 rd quarter is just incomparable from the other quarter’s that had passed. I felt so pressured because there are too many task and works to do, there are times that the given task is not what I am good at doing. I’m so down reading the number of task given in every subjects, I’m so pressured, but I pushed myself despite the pressure and stress I am feeling. I conquer my pressure, I tried my best in doing every task given even though some of them are not what I am good at. I can still say that I did well during 3 rd quarter, despite the problems and emotional days that I had experienced.               Life is all about learning, and for you to learn more, you need to over...

"Doing Better, Improving"

   Second quarter is already coming to end, the time moves so fast. It feels like first quarter just ended last week. Its been a full of learnings and new discoveries. I became too relaxed last first quarter to the point that I almost got failed grades. But I used it as a motivation to do better and to improve myself. And I think I've done much better during this quarter and I'm so proud of myself for that.    I did encounter the same problems from last quarter. There are times that I don’t understand some parts of the concept notes and some instructions given by our teachers. There are also times when I feel exhausted while reading the concept notes and doing my school works. But I overcome these challenges through asking teachers and classmates about something that is not clear to me, by having time management and taking a rest when I feel exhausted.    Moving on, I will continue doing my best with my academics. Its tiring and hard but I know its part of ...
