Not yet titled as an Engineer kasi di pa ako nakapag board exam.. nag-aral kasi ako ulit, yung IT, while working 2 jobs.

funny how they asked (family) me to take nursing (after a series of shifting courses), but im not into it. gusto ko nga maging mekaniko haha but my dad said no or even my hubby said its not really a desirable job for me knowing my size. so eto walang magawa sa buhay... though right now, studying online helped a lot... gusto ko nga real school but medyo di kaya sa sked or sa budget... i still fix small things dito sa bahay pag kaya. dad ko kasi was a mechanical engineer so i think nag mana ako sa kanya. kaya lng medyo stereotype ata kasi babae. lol... good luck din sayo!!! i know we all find our ways somehow... kahit gaano ka hirap. we'll get there! God bless all!!!

Degree/University: BS Nursing (St Luke's College of QC, TCQC '92) licensed with CGFNS; MAED- Teaching in the Early Grades (UP-Dilman) 2000; MAED-Special Ed.

UP Dliman 2003 (licensed Special Education teacher in New Jersey, Maryland and Virginia) I forgot to add I also took 20 units from Towson University in Maryland and 20 units in Notre Dame University in Baltimore

Recent Job: SPecial Education Teacher/Trainor

Reason: I love teaching... this is my calling. Nursing profession might be handy someday if I get tired of nasty parents in the US. ahahaha! I miss working with Filipino students and dealing with Filipino parents, very respectful and appreciative.

Yes, It is easy to find a job as a Special Education teacher as long as you are highly qualified - with the extensive educational background and years of experience (I have 15 years, Hayan na reveal na age ko) If you are good in documentation and making reports - doing educational/psychological assessments, good team leader, good communication skills and need to have tons of PATIENCE for persons with special needs and for their parents. If you have all these then I suggest you go for it. I was earning like $80K/-85Kin 10 months and what's good about it when the kids are off, off din ako!!!! I dont work during the summer break, pahinga and para makapag recharge. I hope I gave you an idea about my profession.

Can I add my sister's profession and educational background?

School: De La Salle University (Taft)- BS Philosophy '94

Graduate School: Ateneo de Manila - MA in Philosophy 2000 and MA in Theological studies

Job: College Professor in Philo (hehe, obvious ba?) and she gives retreats and recollection along with the Jesuit brothers in Ateneo.

Reasons: She loves talking and learning people; she entered the monastery couple of years back but realized that she can still serve outside the convent.
