[Her Story] Education

November 7, 2015 By Tammy Leave a Comment

Lola shares bits and pieces of her life, her thoughts, her prayers randomly and I want to be able to catch them. Some days, we go through her journal – treasured notebooks that she writes in daily (and has been doing so for almost fifty years). But on most days, we just talk, eat biscocho […]

Pancake Manor Fans

March 1, 2015 By Tammy Leave a Comment

Okay. We are guilty of allowing our children to use iPads. Yes, we have been fairly warned of the great dangers these gadgets can cause the development of our kids. And yes, we have failed to listen.

Kaya. [I am a Raya Fan]

October 10, 2008 By Tammy 3 Comments

Most of my close friends know that my ultimate dream is to modify the curriculum of Sibika at Kultura (which I’ve heard has been changed into Makabayan). Something has to be done to tweak it so that our students can relate to it and not just memorize dates and names… Something that can make them […]

Fwd: On the Meaning of an Ateneo Education

June 2, 2008 By Tammy Leave a Comment

So I received this forwarded message the other day from the batch 2004 yahoogroups. I immediately thought of Franke, my cousin.

She could very well have gotten into an excellent university in the United States and develop skills in whatever it is she […]
