During my last year in high school, I taught eight grade six students from a public school in Marikina, once a week, in a program called Tulong Dunong (TD). It was exasperating, but in the end, rewarding. After I graduated up to my second year in college, I’d receive a phone call on the day of my birthday every year, asking for “Sir Peter.” I’d pick it up, and on the other line was my student, now in high school, greeting me a happy birthday. During my fourth year in college, I saw one of them walking around the college campus, wearing an Ateneo ID.
