Remembering Our Teachers, Our Heroes

Do you remember that one particular teacher who made the biggest impact in your life aside from your mother? When was the last time you thanked her or him for giving you a grade of 99, for giving you a hug when you needed it most, or for praising your beautiful artwork?

We are observing Teacher's Month from September 5 to October 5 this year to give us all the time to express our gratitude to our beloved teachers. They, who became our second parents in school by default, took us as their very own children. They spend most of their nights thinking of the ways they can better teach us the following day. Moms and Dads don't make parenting plans on an everyday basis but teachers have their custom-built lesson plans. It is a profession that is not paying as good as the other professions when in fact, teaching is the only profession whose influence extends to all generations.

When I was still a little kid, there was no Teacher's Month yet. I and my classmates visit our former teachers during Valentine's Day and pin a cutout heart or a cupid in her blouse. The most loved teacher had the longest trail of hearts in her uniform at the end of the day. Oh, how proud we were to see our favorite teacher with our little hearts!

Kids nowadays can thank their teachers, their heroes the high-tech way - via an online blackboard. You can access the Virtual Blackboard by clicking this on link.

Thank you, dear teachers! You are indeed our heroes!




A good teacher can inspire hope, ignite the imagination, and instill a love of learning.

  1. Naalala ko pa noon, bandang 1982.. Grade 5 kami sa Narra Pilot School, teacher namin si Mam Buera. Pagdating ng hapon, tapos na ang klase, isasama nya kami sa Simbahan. Lalakad kami ng mga kaklase ko nang paluhod, sa unahan namin si Mam, hawak ang rosary. Maniwala kayo't sa hindi, siya na Science teacher ko ang nagturo sa akin mag-rosary :) Nong naaksidente ang kapatid ko at naospital, inipon ko ang mga pinsan ko at nagrosaryo kami ayon sa natatandaan kong turo ni Mam Buera. Nakabawas din ng malaki sa takot namin sa nangyari. Looking back, isa si Mam sa nagbigay ng matibay na pundasyon ko sa spirituality. Wala yan sa subject na itinuturo sa school, nasa puso.
