A week to go before school ends and it's time to let go of the serious, political stuff for the mean time and delve on some inside-of-school topics!
Probably a big chunk of what makes college memorable, fun and even not enjoyable at all is the teacher that stands in front of your class. He or she who feeds you with all the information you need for your future job. He or she who makes you laugh every session. He or she who gives you all those endless papers and homework. Despite all these, we all have our favorite. We asked around to get to know who are the students' favorites. Who's yours?
Bottomline is, students like teachers that are fun, are easy to get along with and make their students eager to learn more. Most do not care anymore of what grades they receive from these teachers, what matters more is the essence and purpose of what they've learned from them.
According to the respondents, this question has been even harder to answer than the first question! We assume it's because there are too many awesome teachers to choose from (and hopefully not lack thereof).

"Laura Cabochan (English). Even if she's my 7:30 class, and it seems nakakatamad to wake up so early, she gives me a reason to wake up early. I mean, I don't get bored 'pag early morning, generally, as a person, she's really nice and approachable, 'tas as a teacher, same rin, I know where to place myself when I'm around her and she's super considerate and fun."
— Krizia Lim, BFA Information Design

"My favorite teacher(s) would have to be Dr. Lucia Natividad, who teaches Theo 121. She’s strict but you know that she cares about you a lot, just like a mommy. *laughs* She wants you to learn and not just get A’s. Same with Atty. Jennifer Barretto, who was my teacher in Accounting. She’s super cool. She’s the only teacher who makes gives an extra class before a long test to make sure we all pass. May time nga na even other classes join ours 'cause she's such a good teacher *laughs* and she gave us free brownies from Conti's (just because she felt like it)."
