From Teacher Shine

Dear students,

It has been five years since I took my first steps in this country but it feels like it was just yesterday. I still vividly remember how excited I was when I first came here. And now, five years later, here I am writing a farewell letter to all of you.

As you all probably know, I really like to talk. 😅That is why during classes, I always want to get to know you, to learn from you, and to be friends with you. And for putting up with that, thank you. I appreciate it so much.

Thank you for the tips, the advice, the guidance, and for all the information you have given me. Thank you for sharing your stories and for listening to mine. Everything that I know now, I got them from the talks that I had with all of you.

Thank you for the memories. I got myself some really cool friends in my five years of stay here. I hope you guys enjoyed my company as much as I enjoyed yours. 🤗

Finally, I hope that in one way or another, I was able to help you, too. I hope that I helped you build your confidence in speaking English. And I hope that I made you like English more. Please don’t stop learning the language, because the more you learn it, the more interesting it gets. 😉

I wish everyone the best in everything. I wish that you reach all your goals and aspirations. Don’t give up when things get hard, but keep going on because there’s always a light at the end of every tunnel.

みなさんのおかげで､私は日本で充実した5年間を過ごすことができました。フィリピンに帰っても私は日本語の勉強を続けますので､みなさんも英語の勉強を引き続き楽しんでください。もしフィリピンに来ることがあったら､ 是非私に連絡をください。今まで本当にありがとうございました。またいつかお会いしましょう。

Sincerely Yours,

Shine
