So, as the title asks, which Highschool Math? I've just started teaching in a private school in my country. I'm a Math teacher and as expected, a lot of students cringe at the idea of Math. But it is such an important subject...

rinzgca Yeah, yeah, you did say Monopoly money. Lol. I noticed it only after I re-read your post and mine.. My bad. Sorry. Yes, a good math curriculum should make a decent mathematician out of anyone, even if that guy wasn't really good at math. It's good to hear...

rinzgca Ah yes...Pre Cal. I'm a math teacher and I've forgotten parts of it as well. So I guess, it's fairly common to forget math stuff especially if you won't use it. I haven't had accounting (not in college or highschool). But from the ideas I have of it, I can...

Well, we all know that Rizal quoted the quotable quote 'Ang kabataan ay ang pag-asa ng bayan' (bow!). I just wonder if this is still applicable to today's youth. As a young adult, I hear many issues about the youth in the news...

rinzgca No, don't worry, your pessimism didn't ruin my day. ;) Having replied to other comments before this (sorry), I realized that one factor to the disintegration of the youth is their values. Either they were not taught properly or they don't have the right...

rinzgca I am a new teacher and I am (once again) inspired by this testimonial. I guess, when you are a student you never really see the whole picture until a certain time. Its good that you had such a fun time with math in highschool and have realized its usefulness...

rinzgca Hi 2004cqui, I am very interested in your ideas. If I were to give them students bucks (like a salary), I'll probably have to use play money or some prop. But I like it. I will seriously consider one of your ideas. I agree that there are restrictions being...

rinzgca Looks like your family really like Math! :) I won't be teaching Business Math this year but I hope that the students who will be taking it up will be inspired with it like you were. I know that there were some who loved the subject when we had it last school...

rinzgca Oh wow. You really encouraged me to teach calculus early! In my country, it isn't really being taught as a regular subject in all schools. I really like calculus too. It is one of the most applicable math because it deals with more realistic problems....

rinzgca I will be 24 in a few days and you just gave me a wake-up call. I do consider myself lazy at times. Anyway, being in the education industry, that laziness of the youth today can already be seen early, in highschool, for example. A good saying, what you sow,...

rinzgca Ah yes. He has forgiven me. That was so long ago. Now it's just a story we recall when we talk about good times. It has become one of the things we laugh about when we get to talk. Haha.

It was reported that president-apparent Noynoy Aquino is eyeing talk show host Boy Abunda as secretary of the Department of Tourism. Though Abunda has reportedly declined the offer, do you think that it would be a wise decision...

rinzgca moonchild117, I agree with what you said in the second paragraph. That was actually one of the first things that entered my mind when I heard the news that Ninoy Aquino appointed Boy Abunda. What the? I smell return of political favors. I just really think...

rinzgca Hi AmbiePam, actually, a House marathon was also the way I got hooked into the series. My friend made me watch the first season on DVD. After that, I've been looking forward to each episode. I've even shared it with my boyfriend and he's hooked as well. The...

rinzgca Hi jackryan! I also download complete seasons and watch them from start to finish. However, sometimes, I am also ok with waiting a week for episodes. Recently, I just wait for a month or so until I download all the episodes and watch them in one sitting. Since...

rinzgca Hi adequee, you can call me rinz. :) Yes, I like what you said about that legal time, or day, is just a tool to discipline us. I also believe that. Although I would try not to miss Sunday church, if there was an emergency, I'm sure, that God would not...

rinzgca Hi Citizen_Stuart, are those american series? Hehe. I guess, I'm not familiar with them. It's good to have these marathons once in awhile. If you were to recommend me a series, which of those would you recommend?

rinzgca I haven't heard of those! I think I would rather taste/eat sinigang na tuyo instead of sinigang na balut. I just remembered, one of my dormmates cooked sinigang na sardinas. At first I thought that was weird, but apparently, he didn't use the canned sardines....

rinzgca Yeah, if they studied hieroglyphics then that's better. At least they are learning about the language of the rich culture of Egypt. That ought to be useful somewhere down the line. Learning jejemon on the other hand has no benefit at all. Haha. I remember,...

rinzgca Hi! Thanks for the encouragement. Yes, I have noticed a similar occurrence as well. However, I do believe that when we give to the church our motivation should not be on what will be given to us in return but on pleasing God and obeying Him. It was commanded...
