Feature: What Time Is It? It's Physics Time!

Spotlight: Wilfredo Adorio, Jr.
What time is it? It's Physics time!

By Cressa Marie Rodriguez

Everyone has this immediate thought of Physics as a hard subject. This teacher, however, proved all of us wrong.

It was the first day of classes and JCA seniors can't help but worry, especially now that they have Physics as a subject. Rumors started to circulate about how hard it is and to make it worse, they thought that their new Physics teacher is strict - as in very strict.

But all their "theories" were proven incorrect once Mr. Wilfredo Adorio, Jr. entered the classroom and started talking.

At the age of 27, Mr. Adorio already has degrees in Physics and Nursing, and is currently taking up Master of Science in Nursing in a school in Manila.

You may ask yourself, "Why would someone be interested in a hard subject like Physics?" His answer was simply because it's fun to teach because it can be applied in our daily lives.

Being a new teacher, he has his own impressions of his students.

"Willing silang matuto," he said, obviously not disappointed with the openness of JCAians to learn new things from him.

At first look, one would think that he's not the approachable kind - maybe, a terror at that - but he showed it otherwise during his discussions, where he throws a couple of jokes here and there.

"Magaling magturo saka ayos yung mga jokes niya," one student said when asked about him.

Clearly, Mr. Adorio has made learning and studying Physics fun all at the same time. This has prompted fourth year students to ask for more come Physics time.

Opinyon: Bastusan

Bastusan

"Bastusan, Bastos!"

Ito ang mga karaniwang sinasabi sa atin ng mga guro kapag "binabastos" natin sila. Ngunit, sa tingin mo, sino ba ang tunay na may sala?

May ilang fourth year students na hindi na kumikilala ng awtoridad, naghahari-harian at kung kumilos ay parang pinuno ng paaralan. Oo, hindi kumpleto ang hayskul ng hindi nagiging makulit o pasaway sa mga guro. Pero, wag naman sobra. Sobra sobra hanggang sa point na nakakainis na.

Ang ating mga guro ay tao din. Naiinis, naaasar at napupuno. Lalo na kapag nalaman nilang kung ano ano yung mga sinasabi mo sa likuran nila - lalong lalo na kung wala itong batayan at panay panghuhusga ang ibinibigay nila pag hindi nila naiibigan ang isang bagay.

Tao rin naman tayo. At siguro may batayan rin ang mga ito upang "bastusin" ang isang guro at sabihan nang kung anu-ano, pero responsibilidad ng isang estudyante na irespeto ang mga ito sa abot nang kanilang makakaya.

Kahit naman sino ang tanungin mo ay dapat nating isipin ang na tama ang bagay bago tayo magsalita o magbigay ng suhestyon ukol sa mga bagay-bagay.

Sa iyong tingin, dapat bang bastusin ang mga guro kahit may kamalian ito? Tandaan natin na hindi lahat ng bagay ay naaayon sa gusto niyong mangyari.

Konting isip naman mga kaibigan. Ang estudyante ay estudyante. Ang teacher ay teacher. Wala tayong karapatan magmataas. Ang problema, wala naman kasing binatbat. Wala na ngang sinabi, dumadaldal pa kahit wala namang alam.

Pasensya na po.
