I am annpatrice from Philippines. I'm very honored to be part of this growing community. I just heard this site from my cousins( @chingpherd , @rigor , @karyah1001) which have been part of this community for quite some time. I'm interested about this since I heard that  this would provide me better opportunities.

I used to be a working student for almost four years just to enroll myself until I graduated in college. I was on that very hard situation in managing time between working and studying. By working and studying hard, I am now a licensed teacher. Yes! a licensed teacher. And I'm very proud to say that I am one of those successful working student before.

 I am now one of the teachers of a productive ESL institution here in the Philippines. It's always been my dream of teaching students with different nationalities. I've always wanted to meet new people. That's why I'm also joining this community for I know I will be meeting new people not just from the Philippines  but also from the different parts of the world. I'm looking forward for that!

Thank you !
