#‎51TalkTeacherStory‬ Awarding Ceremony and 51Talk Welcomes Michele Gumabao Back

Finally went out of my cave to attend ‪#‎51TalkTeacherStory‬ awarding ceremony and the launch of 51Talk’s newest ambassador.

First time to hear about 51Talk? Ano ba, have you been living under the rock?

O sya, let’s have a short course about 51Talk.

51Talk is the number 1 online English platform in China and the fastest growing online English Language Teaching (ELT) platform in the Philippines. The company was established on China in 2011, and began operations in the Philippines since 2012.

With more than 4,000 home-based teachers in Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, we continuously provide career opportunities to Filipinos who have a good command of English.

In short, it’s a home based raket, specially for those who have a good command in English language. 51Talk is pronounced as FIVE- ONE- TALK, may be read as I WANT TALK in Mandarin.

And since it is an online English Language Teaching platform, of course they have their own share of National Teacher’s Month celebration. 51Talk paid tribute to its teachers through the #51TaklTeacherStory contest. The contest were encouraged to share their stories and experiences being an online teacher. All entries were judged based on uniqueness, inspirational appeal and over all impact.

“With their commendable communication skills, Filipinos are proven to be one of the best teachers of the English language,” shared Jen Que, Vice President for Philippine Operations. “It was hard picking the top 3 entries. We admire their patience, passion, and perseverance in making a difference in the lives of our students and providing for their families.”

Out of 250 entries from all over the Philippines, 3 winners were chosen.

3rd place winner is a persevering Architecture student and a passionate teacher through 51Talk, Teacher Amorlove from Cebu. Being a student hereself, she knows and understands her students’ passion for learning. It serves as her inspiration in her teaching session.

A single mother and an online English educator, Teacher Lilydale, comes in 2nd place. Teaching English online not only gave her a fulfilling job, but also granted her the chance to always be present for her son and take care of him.

Winning the contest at 1st place is Teacher Moyee, who helped her student overcome his nervousness. She started talking to him about his interests and other topics that he’s comfortable with to ease him into conversing in English. After a month of lessons and newfound confidence, her student moved to Australia to pursue a master’s degree.

After the awarding, 51Talk welcomes Michele Gumabao back as 51Talk ambassador.

As the 51Talk Ambassador in the Philippines, multi- awarded power spiker Michelle Gumabao continues to inspire confidence and determination among the Filipino youth.

When she joined 51Talk, Michelle also conducted an online English class to different learners. Through her stints in online English she understands that what motivates any Filipino e- Educators today is witnessing the eagerness and determination of the students to learn.

Abenson Shop Now, Pay in 2016 Promo

at habang nag iikot kame sa Ever Ortigas na soon to be SM (may Toy Kingdom na sa loob! and in fair, the rest room e SM level na), napadaan kame sa AbensonAbenso..

This is the best part of having a new house, ang sarap magtingin ng new appliances! (kahit hindi pa swak sa budge). Interesado ako sa ref, two door na bongga sa laki or side by side na hindi masyadong bongga sa presyo. We need a bigger ref sooner eh. Malayo ang tindahan sa bahay.. so it’s either, humanap ako ng runner muchacha or mag stock ako ng maraming foodang. Bigger ref is cheaper to maintain than a runner house help hehehe

Found some helpful tips in terms of ref buying guide and taking care of it:

Kailangan talaga namin ng side by side na ref or two door na at least 15 cubic feet.

Nakakaloka ang new promo nilang Shop Now, Pay in 2016. IN essence, pag nag appliances shopping spree ka today, and first due mo ay 3 months after pa.. and it’s good for up to 12 months installment! TEMPTING!!!!

Gusto ko ng i-swipe and card at bilhin lahat ng pwedeng mabili… pero may listahan pala ng credit card na pasok sa banga, este sa scheme, err sa promo na to:

Madami pang iba pero hindi ko na maaninag ang mga credit cards sa photo sa taas.. the point is.. dalawang card lang ang hindi pwede! At ung dalawang card na un lang ang pwede kong gamitin!
