Full Description
After teaching English for many years-in my case, for twenty long years-one is tempted to believe that one has seen it all. Not true! The twelve tales of teaching English in the public schools offer rich experiences and fresh insights that are not apparent to those of us who thrive in the comforts of the private sector. From Laoag City up north, to the Compostela Valley down south, from the nearby mountains of Antipolo City, to the far-flung island province of Marinduque, each tale of teaching is a testament to the daily struggles public school teachers of English face. One can only marvel at their heroism and regard these teachers in admiration and awe. —From the Introduction by Isabel Pefianco Martin
