The opening remarks highlighted the importance of teacher education in equipping the next generation of educators. It served as a reminder that as future teachers, we are stepping into a profession that profoundly influences lives.


Dr. Jestoni P. Babia is a renowned teacher and leader with great contributions to education. He was designated by former President Rodrigo Roa Duterte as the Teacher Education Council Visayas Representative.

He has also assumed different leadership roles such as Associate Vice President for Academics and Research and Director of Education for Sustainable Development.

These forums gave an opportunity for leaders in education to discuss pressing topics affecting the profession of teaching at present. Some of the discussions included challenges to the education system and how to look into the future of teaching.


The next session with the Falculan Twins from FTRC (Falculan Twins Review Center) was truly one of the most personal and inspiring moments of the event. Their journey in education and dedication to empowering student teachers really motivated me.
They shared about their own experiences, challenges, and also their successes for being in rank Top 2 in LET (Licensure Exam for Teachers). The twins emphasizing that the path to becoming an effective educator is to “Be Humble & Teachable”.

Do you still remember the Security Guard who Graduated Cum Laude?

Guess what? He is Erwin Macua our speaker, who was standing in front of the stage shared stories from his life as a security guard who persevered in studying in college, and when he graduated, he became a cum laude.

“Ang Pagbangon ni Erwin Macua" -Nescafe goes beyond merely advertising Nescafe as a coffee brand. It highlights the importance of not letting life's obstacles stop us from pursuing our dreams. Sir Erwin's journey serves as a source of inspiration for everyone, particularly for those who feel trapped by their situations or are confused about their next steps.

Many are wondering, where is Security Guard Macua now? Well, aside from the occasional appearance on a coffee advertisement for Nescafe, this inspiring man is no longer known as Security Guard Macua but as Sir Macua!

How about you, Ka Hivers? What do you get up for? If you ask me, I get up for my dreams and for the people I love!


After the event, we received our certificates. It was an honor to be part of such an insightful event, and the experience was truly enriching. The knowledge I gained will definitely benefit me in my future careers.

It's a simple yet powerful reminder to trust our abilities. No matter what life throws at us, keep this wisdom close: Believe in yourself and the rest will follow.

The Falculan Twins’ story is so motivating! “Be Humble & Teachable” is truly a mantra every aspiring teacher should live by 👏📚

Yes, ms. @roseandshine. The Falculan Twins’ story is such a great reminder of how important it is to stay humble and open to learning.♥️

His story is a testament that one can change career if you put your mind and heart into it. And it isn't something to be ashamed of. I can resonate to this story. I used to be a Civil Engineer but now I work as a Virtual Assistant. And I love it.
Are you aspiring to be a teacher?

That's really inspiring! It's great that you found something you love po Ms. @indayclara. I'm planning to be a teacher but I'm always open to learn and try new things.

So true! Believing in yourself makes all the difference. No matter what challenges come your way, trust that you’ve got what it takes to handle them. 💚

Absolutely! Believing in ourselves is the key to overcoming any obstacle. It’s all about trusting yourself and staying focused on your goals.♥️

Indeed. Just trust the process

Always trust the process and have faith in God🫶🏻

Your welcome! Have a good day!

A very great program. Such programs in the field of education and motivation, in a word, such programs centered on the field of education are great. Apart from that, I liked it a lot.

I have heard the speeches of many educated people, in fact, we can learn a lot in our lives from their speeches. And it is certainly true that there is so much inspiration behind being humble and learning. It was a great moment and together all the students and teachers will remember such beauty of the students as well as the teachers for a lifetime and many experiences are gained from here which help in life.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful comments! I'm glad you enjoyed the program. I completely agree that education and motivation are powerful tools for growth and it's inspiring to hear how much you value the insights shared by both students and teachers. Moments like these truly leave lasting impressions, and I’m sure they will continue to inspire us all for a long time especially the future educators.🫶🏻
