Have you ever experienced a moment so extraordinary that it stays with you forever? On March 1-2, 2024, such a moment unfolded at Bali Kayu in Tagaytay, where EDGE Tutor hosted its first-ever get-together for Math teachers. This event was more than just a meeting; it was a celebration of Math ESL community and a step forward in our journey to reshape ESL teaching in the Philippines by integrating STEM subjects for online tutoring.
Led by Account Manager Leah, with support from Lesson Support Lead Monique and Senior Hiring Recruiter Jan Carlo, the two-day retreat provided a well-deserved break for tutors who are at the forefront of this educational evolution. The gathering was an opportunity for tutors to connect face-to-face, share experiences, and discuss innovative teaching methods and classroom challenges. Amidst the stunning backdrop of Tagaytay, our tutors left feeling inspired and brimming with ideas, reaffirming the importance of the community and collaborative learning.
The event kicked off with a hearty breakfast, setting the stage for friendships to blossom and stories to be shared. These interactions underscored the strength of bonds formed within the EDGE Tutor community, extending well beyond the confines of online classrooms. The highlight was a special Teacher Awarding ceremony, where exceptional tutors were recognized for their dedication and transformative impact on students' lives. This acknowledgment served as a reminder of the vital role Math ESL educators play in shaping the future.
But it wasn’t all serious—fun activities like swimming and group games injected joy and relaxation into the gathering, fostering a sense of togetherness and creating lasting memories. These moments of leisure complemented the deeper discussions about the rewards and challenges of teaching, allowing tutors to bond over shared experiences and common goals.
At EDGE Tutor, joining our team means more than access to resources; it means becoming part of a community committed to excellence in education and well-being. We support our tutors not only in their professional development but also in maintaining motivation and enthusiasm for teaching online.
As the event concluded, tutors left Bali Kayu with renewed energy and a deeper connection to their colleagues. They returned to their virtual classrooms equipped with new insights and a strengthened resolve to continue making a positive impact on their students' lives, empowered by the support and camaraderie of the EDGE Tutor community.
This memorable gathering marked just the beginning of what we envision will be a vibrant tradition of learning, sharing, and growing together. Join us at EDGE Tutor, and be part of a community that’s driving the future of education in the Philippines.
