Pagod ako and i was about to rest tapos bigla akong napayoutube at napanood ko to. I am also a public school teacher. Habang nagkukuwento si sir delfin naalala ko ung studyante ko kanina mahiyain siya hindi siya nagrerecite tapos nagtanong ako, walang nagtaas ng kamay. Tinawag ko tong batang ito sa una ayaw niyang tumayo at nahihiya i motivated her simply by saying walang maling sagot sa tanong ko and finally sumagot siya at sinabi kong “magaling” simula non lagi na siyang nangunguna sa recitation at hindi ako nagsasawang sabihan siya ng “magaling.”
Who's with me this 2021? After all the things happening around us nakakatuwa at nakita ko itowhile binge-watching on TED Talk . This video really touches my heart. Sobrang pure! Thank you sir for this very inspiring message to all Filipino teachers. A great video to recharge ourselves.Nakakamiss ang classroom, nakakamiss and students :(
proud teacher here....since 1997.....1 year in a small private school, 1 year substitute teacher in a public elementary school, 12 years in a far-flung barangay, on my 12th year in the central school....meron na akong tatlong medical doctors, 1 dentist, 1 lawyer, countless engineers, teachers, CPAs, and other professions...masaya ako hanggang ngayon....until i will retire...12 years na lang...matatapos ko na ang aking bokasyon bilang guro. Salamat Sir Delfin
All I can say is wow. I was deeply moved and inspired to teach better. I am currently in my Practice Teaching (4th year). And I feel so very empty and hopeless to teach children who are very noisy and wild. However, this talk made me to think that I need to try. To change. To be better. To scatter hope among my students. Happy that I've crossed in this video.
Just remember to be patient with them. Never yell or resort to abusive tactics and NEVER think that your student is dumb. The kid would have brain traumatic injury. Current study from Harvard University and Florida state shows Verbal/Emotional abuse is as bad as physical and sexual abuse.
Teachers can really make a difference. I wish you can acquire the book, Mentors, Masters and Mrs. MacGregor (Stories of Teachers Making a Difference) Compiled by Jane Bluestein, Ph.D. God bless you always.
I also told my students that younger generation are clueless.. I've asked them what do they believe in, and what are they willing to fight for,... for them to think about their purpose. A teacher who is immersed in the community are really sensible teachers.. congrats Delfin for being one..
I am very much enlightened and inspired when I listened to your speech. I realized one important thing that I am proud of being a teacher because during my student's school life whether he likes it or not. I am I part of him as a second mother .giving him good, useful, and motherly advice for his development and success. I love to serve
My mom was a teacher for more than 30 years and the way I see it, the happiness that she gets from seeing her students being successful means a lot to her 😊
Amazing speech.This made me cry.I remembered the time we went to Ateneo, I felt I was in a different world too.I was studying in a public school and I was amazed how grand the school is.I dreamt of being in a top university like Ateneo.
I stumbled upon this video and after watching it I remembered my forgotten x, I found my reason to live and that is to teach for the Philippines, this is one of the best Ted talk videos I've watched. God bless us all
2022 but still watching this. It inspires me to make a try. Paano ko malalaman kung ang teaching is for me kung hindi ko susubukan. Thank you for your talk.
I just found this channel, my gosh, Very informative, educative, thanks much ... I just retired last yr 2021 as a public school principal 1V in the elem. Availed early retirement at age 54, NAWALAN AKO NG GANANG PUMASOK SA ARAW ARAW, NAPAGOD AT DID NO LONGER ENJOY MY WORK AS A PRINCIPAL, MAS NA ENJOY KO NOONG CLASSROOM TEACHER AKO, AS MASTER TEACHER
Very moving and inspiring! By the way! I'm also an Instructor in a state college in Manila! I love teaching it's my passion! I inspire students to be who they wanted to become! Kudos to Sir Delfin and to all the teachers!
As a challenged student 30 years ago, this talk also made me cry. It's sad that we, "special needs" students, are not guaranteed the type of teacher we need in life, resulting in many that simply gave up.
So inspiring message. I miss my country, the Philippines. Hopefully, when I retire from teaching, I will be able to volunteer in the Philippines. Thanks for the message, indeed NAKAKA PROUD!
i dont have experience in teaching pero interview ko bukas for a teaching position, with this video nakaka inspire talaga, parang dinagdagan yung drive ko to pursue this field. mas gagalingan ko interview ko bukas. just love everyone. ❤🤘
If you ask me 5 years ago this video really is inspired me to teach paulit ulit ko tong pinapanood and very inspiring I wish na mamessage ko si Sir Delfin to Thank
I almost cried when teacher delfin told a story of his student kc. Teacher delfin is an epitome of kindness, sir may you continue your vacation as a teacher, may you inspire more students, and let's make this world a better place to live in, not just for ourselves but also for the future generations of the Philippines.
i salute you... your an excellent teacher.. if all teacher teaches the way you did... probably the students will learn so much from your teachings.. thanks for this video..
I often watch Ted talks here in youtube the suddenly think may Ted talk Kaya dito sa Philippines then I saw this video. And I admire the his meaning of TEACH
I'm a public school teacher also. when i was teaching in grade six i ask one of my pupils about his dream and he told me he wants to make a hollow blocks.
I love this talk. It's very inspiring and had brought me to a realization that i should teach again. Love u sir. 😘 May u continue to inspire young minds for the betterment of our country. And i might do as well. One mind and soul at a time.
