MARION HANDS-ON MATH SUMMER TUTORIAL CLASSES


The first two MARION Hands-On Math & Reading Tutor Franchise Centers fortunately opened in two major cities of CARAGA - Butuan and Surigao.  Owned by two dynamic ladies, Mylene Jamora and Hazel Zambas, the centers are now catching attention through multi-media ads in their respective areas which they personally spear-headed.

With this kind of desire and persistence in pursuing their very first OWN business, there's no doubt they will make it big in the tutorial business and open more franchise units in the country.  WAY TO GO, ladies....

MARION - Cagayan de Oro City will soon open as well, in time for the 2012 school year opening. Courtesy of Eda Avila, the lady SPED teacher from Maryland (USA), the business is fast spreading in the region and soon enough, the whole country.

Talkin'  about making difference to other people's lives....

I am so excited to see more women empowerment through MARION Hands-On Math & Reading Tutor franchise business.

What's Up?

It's been a while since my last post as I have been preoccupied with MARION Tutor Franchise stuff. Material making is almost done now and curriculum/worksheet-making will start pretty soon. I have to finish at least 90% by February as the training for the first batch of franchisees will be on March. In spite of the mammoth tasks ahead putting together this venture, I feel at ease as this is really my passion and inspired by my two kids.

Here are latest pictures from school, MUST, with my class in the graduate school (M.A. SpEd).

WELCOME ESP, FEASIBILITY STUDY, and MARKETING MANAGEMENT STUDENTS - CKC


Welcome to Second Semester.

I look forward to an engaging semester of discussions, field works, researches, artistic outputs, blogging, emailing, and consultations. This might look a lot but everything is doable.  You're welcome to see me if you need help.

WELCOME MSE 545 STUDENTS - TEACHING CHILDREN WITH SEVERE AND MULTIPLE IMPAIRMENT - M.U.S.T.

Welcome to the class. This will be a semester studying teaching strategies and related topics for children with severe and multiple impairment. There'll be case studies, researches, discussions, blogging, and, the new little addition to the skill, the making of an online Personal Learning Environment (PLE).

I believe in your ability to learn.  So keep the spirit high and the interest always.

MARION

Marion is a tutorial system intended to address the Reading and Mathematics skills of school children from preschool to elementary  and, soon enough, high school levels. Right now, the setting of the physical environment and instructional materials are shaping up in a "laboratory classroom" which eventually will be the teacher training center.

I'm looking at the possibility of making this my dissertation study in 2014 - enough time to draw conclusion by then.

I commissioned my ten-year-old girl to do the design for Marion and she came up with the logo below in an hour. I paid her a "hefty" amount of money for a ten-year-old to show how she can make money out of her talent.
