CHOOSING A SCHOOL

June will mark the opening of School year 2009-2010. Before we enroll our kids, we should make sure we enroll them in a trusted learning environment. However, many parents have their specific reasons as to why they enroll their kids in their specific choice. But for me, one of the criteria should be the teaching staff. Does the school have good teachers? How will you know this? Well, look at the trend of graduates. Are the graduates in the school successful in their own fields? Hmm.. Kinda unfair but true. At least to me. See, if the students in a certain school end up with mediocre lives, believe it or not, the teachers and the school have something to do with that also. Apart from the home environment and the student's peers.

What am I saying? Teachers play a good role in the development of the child. Although it's true that learning and education is a partnership between the home and the school, still, teachers are more influential than the other significant persons in a child's life.. I don't know why that is so... But that's just how I have seen it... I may be wrong.. As for me, I am still scouting and looking around CDO as to the right school for my baby brother and Lili... But I think my mom is sending River to XU.. I am not sure though...

Below is my criteria:

a.) Affordability without sacrificing Quality... (SOP)
b.) Accessibility: One ride only if it's possible..(SOP)
**** c.) Should have THE BEST Teachers (No favoritism please) and Good Learning Facilities
d.) Should be an environment that fosters growth for the kids...
e.) I would like it to be a SAFE and SECURE Environment...

My HS Alma Mater is offering 20% discount on tuition for my Lili since I am an alumnae there.. I still prefer XU, another Alma Mater (college).. since the name really stands out, but Lifetime Study Center also has a good reputation.. I also consider Oro Christian Grace School, since Mika, my student this Summer, is a walking example of what kids are taught there. Seriously, choosing a school is a great deal for me these days. It keeps my mind busy.. Busy thinking... I want Zarelle to have the best foundation. She is a smart kid. She deserves to be at the right learning environment to become the person she wants to be.

Well, what about you? What do you think about these matters?

COLLECTING GOLD

People have varied interests. People have varied hobbies and how they spend their pastime depends on how much they want to pursue their current activities. Of course, with the notion of what they can get out of the experience. There is a new hobby that I find really interesting, not for me though, but for a few people I know. My friend's dad is collecting gold in all forms, shapes and sizes. They even come from different countries they have been. Well, his dad is a seaman and technically, he has had lots of experience with gold. In fact, it is in his very travel that he buys each piece in his collection. Most of what we have seen are in coin form and others are still in their raw form. Beautiful pieces, I should say--- Anyway, I have searched more about gold coins collection since it is prevalent rather than the raw materials. I found out that there are lots and lots of companies selling them online. One particular company, Monex Deposit Company (MDC) is a good place to purchase s...

VOIP REVIEWS

Have you heard of VOIP Reviews ? Well, if you wish to know what the best VOIP is, visit www.voipdslfaxandphoneservice.com, and see for yourself. When Honeysweet Learning Center started with a franchise from Everything Online Inc., part of the services we used to offer was VOIP . Unfortunately, Balulang was not so much a fan of the technology, so we did not make money from that. We had it removed after a few months without any activity. Anyway, below are some information as to the best VOIP and DSL services which I found out from the said site. First we have AT&T CallVantage , which is said to be better than Vonage and other competitors because of its consistent high call quality and customer support. Next we have Cox Communications Digital Telephone . It is said to have the best call quality and reliability. And of course, Vonage ... It was said that the successful patent infringement suits by Verizon and Nextel Sprint, Vonage has taken a big dip, but is still found recom...

GREAT CHRISTMAS GIFTS..

Image
I did blog about this previously, that I am recommending a laundry bag for Christmas or any other occasion. Hahaha .. Why? Because I find that it is the most sensible thing to do. Kids these days have so much problem in keeping their rooms tidy and organized. Not to mention that a laundry bag is a good idea for their laundry not to be scattered all over the place. And if they have to go to a laundromat, it will be very easy for them to carry their laundry around.. Isn't that a good idea? If you want one, simply go to posylane .com and get me a laundry bag of the color and design of your choice... or any other fabulous colors to choose from.. I am sure your favorite student will give you a thumbs up for it--- Now, if your favorite student is still in preschool, you can actually get any of the personalized kids backpacks just like the pink stephen joseph quilted backpack above with the cute butterfly on it below--- Isn't it cute? Kids will surely love all the cute and colorf...
