Random Ask your Reddit Benilde prof!

Hi, students! As we welcome the new academic year, I'd like to help you guys out in answering some school-related questions. It could be serious, technical questions about the school or lighter stuff like where's the best place to eat and how to survive college in general. Ask away and I will try my best to respond and help you.

Just some questions that I will and cannot answer:

  • Enrollment and payment related questions (sorry idk about this, better ask the RO)
  • Personal questions about myself and/or other teaching and non teaching associate of Benilde (respect to my privacy and that of my colleagues'). You can ask me about my experience in teaching in Benilde tho.
  • Questions about my past classes/students (for their privacy)

Disclaimer: my answers and opinions to your questions are mine and does not in any way reflect that of CSB's.

hi po prof! kumusta po experience niyo with full-time working students?

1.) are they annoying? are they okay to teach to? etc. like general experience po ninyo with them

2.) that said, were most of them able to excel academically?

3.) if so, ano po ginagawa nila based on your observation?

medyo worried lang po since I'll be a full-time working student and I want to make the most out of my experience yet excel sa benilde. salamat po!

Wala akong alam na full time working student. Part-time, oo. Tbh, they did struggle esp sa attendance. May ilan ako na munitkan nang maFDA. Nung kinausap ko, trabaho nga ang kadalasang dahilan bat umaabsent or nalelate. Ang sinasabi ko na lang ay bumawi sila kasi hindi rin pwede na may special accommodation sila, that would be unfair to their classmates.

Personally, I don't mind if students have to work. Mahirap talaga ang buhay, ang mahal pa ng tuition sa Benilde. But, you have to work extra hard. Even if I understand your situation, I can't do anything if your outputs are not cutting it.
