Teaching as a
Vocation
> Teaching is more than a noble profession. It is a calling.

4. If there's a call, there must be a caller.
There must also be a response.
> Christians - the caller is God
> Muslims - the caller is Allah
Teaching as a
Vocation
Believers in the supreme being will look at this voiceless
call to have a vertical dimension.
Non-believers. The call is also experienced but this may
be viewed solely along a horizontal dimension. It is just
like man calling another man, never a superior being
calling man

5. Teaching as a
Vocation
Vocation is a strong feeling of suitability for a
particular carrier or occupation.
Teaching requires dedication and service in
order for a individual to be considered as a real
teacher.

Vocation
When someone practice teaching as his
vocation, they teach with dedication.

really dedicated not just to work but also

12. Teaching and a
LIFE of Meaning
"Teaching is
touching the
hearts of people
and opening the
minds of the
children..."
From Dr. Josette T. Biyo

13. From Dr. Josette T. Biyo
"TEACHING may not be a lucrative
position. It can not guarantee financial
security. It even means investing your
personal time, energy, and resources.
Sometimes it means disappointments,
heartaches, and pains. But touching the
hearts of people and opening the minds of
children can give you joy and contentment
which money could not buy. These are the
moments I teach for. These are the
moments I live for."

14. "PWEDE NA" VS. EXCELLENCE
Strive for Excellence - another element of a profession
- this element leads us to the issue of "" pwede na"
- enemy of Excellent Mission Preparation and
Accomplishment.

15. The mediocre teacher tells.
The good teacher explains.
The superior teacher
demonstrate.
The great teacher inspires.
- William Arthur Ward
