Awkward to the max. I'd rather talk to an advance student as opposed to someone hovering over my class. Thanks for dropping by, Ms. Ira.

I hope I can do it and earn same as you.. hehehe I already computed the approximate expenses so I do really hope and pray.. You have mentioned that "You have to invest in your own equipment. Mahal din ang mga earphones and all that gadgets."If I may I ask, what equipment are you using and what do you recommend in terms of brand for the headset and all? Thank you so much!

Younger kids are the toughest because I need to be energetic and happy all the time. I'd say the pros outweigh the cons though, especially dealing with traffic in Cebu.
