The red pen

Small edits. Clearer lessons.

A lesson is only as clear as its sentences. Changing a few words in an objective or an instruction can change how the whole class goes.

About

Hi, I'm Marilou.

I started teaching at a private high school in Malabon in 1988, and have taught English and literature since 1996. Since then I've taught in universities, mentored new teachers as a master teacher, and now supervise and train English teachers across the Malabon division.

The part of the work I enjoy most is talking with teachers and learners, and planning trainings. Of my projects outside DepEd, writing has been my favorite.

Now I help private schools with both: materials that fit their learners, and teachers who feel ready to use them.

What I bring
I've stood where your teachers stand.

Ten years teaching high school in private schools, then English and literature classes at FEU Tech and De La Salle.

I've spent years training teachers.

As a master teacher I mentored new faculty. As English supervisor I train and support teachers across the Malabon division.

I've written the books.

Textbooks for Vibal, Diwa and Avinya, and custom module sets for private schools.
