About the Author

Joselito delos Reyes was named “Makata ng Taon” in 2013 b the Komsyon ng Wikang Filipino,
became the Grand Prize Winner of the 1st Maningning Miclat Awards for Poetry in 2003, and was
awarded the Gawad Pio Valenzuela Award for Journalism and Literature by his hometown in
Valenzuela. He received his BSE Social Science diploma from the Philippine Normal University,
and his M.A. and Ph.D in Philippine Studies degrees from the De La Salle Uninversity. Jowie lives
in Lucban with his wife Angela and his two daughters.

Motivation:

What is a famous line of your teacher that you will never forget?

Instruction/Delivery:
A. Interactive discussion on the subject matter is to be done.

B. Guide questions for discussion:

1. Why did the author’s mother want her children to become teachers?
2. How was the mother depicted in the essay?
3. Who was Angela, and how did the author regard her?
4. How did the author’s mother react when she heard that he was having his final
demonstration teaching at the Villamor High School in Pasig Line?
5. Why did the author say that it was a good thing that his mother did not become a teacher?
Explain.

Practice:

In the country, teachers in the public and in some private schools are overworked and underpaid.
As a student, how will you help alleviate this oppressive condition that teachers often find
themselves in? Write your ideas in your notebook.

Enrichment:

Biographical Context - same as authorial context. Biographical context places a particular literary
work within the context of the author’s life. Consider the circumstances under which the literary
work was written. While exploring biographical context, useful sources include biographies of the
author, autobiographies or memoirs by the author or by people who knew him or her, and critical
works that give close attention to the author’s life.

Linguistic Context - discourse that surrounds a language unit and helps to determine its
interpretation.

Sociocultural Context - it is evident when literary works respond in some way to the society in
which they were written, and most often (though not always) that response takes the form of
criticism. Sociocultural context is about how a particular literary work depicts society. Sources you
might investigate include works (books and articles) of history or sociology that talk about the
strengths, weaknesses, and changes occurring in the society during the period in which the literary
work is set, and critical works that emphasize the connection between the society and the literary
work.

Values Integration:

Give a personalized greeting card to your teachers, in profound appreciation and gratitude for their
work as beacons of light and formators of the youth.

“You see things; and you say, ‘Why?' But I dream things that never were; and I say, ‘Why not?'”
– George Bernard Shaw

“What is not started today is never finished tomorrow.”

– Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
