Sir Betonio and 16-015A against the world! 

# data[].attributes.body
Sir Betonio,

I am not here to write a sixty-word essay nor I am here to ask for another extension. I am simply here to tell you that you have been a remarkable teacher through and through! You have undoubtedly been an inspiring teacher to all of us, molding us into individuals we never imagined we could become. And, because of you, Sir Betonio, you have instilled in us the lessons that we will never forget.

Yes, GE 1106 may be exhausting, but it also changed us for the better. From being scared and timid during presentations in the earlier weeks of classes to becoming confident public speakers––to the point where everyone volunteered to present––as the days went by, you, Sir, were the reason for it.

Our classes may have ended, but we will never forget the reflections and learnings we gained from your class. For sure, we will pass on what we have learned in this class in our future endeavors. I hope you're as proud of us as we are of you, Sir! Thank you for everything. 16-015A loves you! ♡

Like what we've said in the video:

Purposive Communication, ang sarap mo!

Sincerely,

Ben Hugue

Ang Masarap na Beadle ng 16-015A

Hi Sir! I hope you’re doing well. I just wanted to thank you po for being my professor in Purposive Communication. The course was indeed challenging at times, and there were moments when I didn’t perform as well as I had hoped, but I saw them as opportunities to learn and improve. Your feedback on our sharing helped us become more aware of things we didn’t notice, and I really appreciate how you guided us on what areas to improve. Your comments allowed us to improve on our weaknesses in each session. Personally, I noticed how much more confident I’ve become in maintaining eye contact when speaking. Before, I struggled with it, but now I feel more comfortable speaking to an audience and maintaining eye contact. I’ve also become more aware of my unnecessary movements and now speak with greater confidence. Even during my last TED talk, when I forgot a line, I didn’t panic as much as I used to, and I believe this is just one of the many things I learned in your class. You did not only help me with speaking, but also with how I handle failure and setbacks. I am very proud to have been part of your class. Thank you, Sir Betonio. Your class really made a great impact on me, and please know that you did a really good job. WE LOVE YOU SIR!

You gave us something to tackle, something that rookies like us would have to overcome to survive, and yet you didn't leave us alone in it. I remember when I would email you about my late submissions and you would email back faster than I could have even made the submission... It touched my heart how even despite the challenges, you were really here for us through-and-through, thanks for the fun Sir Betonio! 💯💪

helloo Sir Gerry Gerbear! Please know that you have done everything you could to teach us your knowledge and expertise in communication. Honestly, one of my best professors this semester and I cannot express my gratitude that such professor was assigned to me. Your ways definitely molded me to improve my public speaking skills. Looking back since day 1, I can see my improvement because of your guidance and feedback. I hope to see you around campus, Professor! 💙

hello po sir! i really appreciate you for giving us the opportunity to improve our speaking skills and build our confidence through the weekly reflection, i love the way you handle your class because for me it was really effective. i would not know my weak points and would have continued with my habits when speaking if it wasn’t you who noticed and gave a feedback on my performance. purpcomm made me reminisce and ignite again my passion for public speaking. the experience we have is something i would not trade for anything. the class 16-015A will always be thankful for you sir! we are glad to be under your guidance in the our first semester as freshies, we love you po 🤍 see you around sir ^^

Hi, Sir!

I deeply appreciate your patience and efforts throughout the semester. because of your class, I was able to freely speak about my experiences and aspirations - whether it was through our weekly daigler outputs or the oral recitations. Your style of teaching has allowed me to grow and gain confidence. Every perfect score I got made me feel a sense of fulfillment, and because of that, I thank you for helping me challenge myself to do my best every single time. 🤍 I am beyond grateful to have you as my professor for this subject. We will miss you, po! See you around campus, Sir!

Good day Sir Betonio,

Despite initially having negative thoughts about this subject, because im afraid of public speaking, I have realized that Purposive Communication has really helped me take my public speaking skills to another level. With you as our teacher, you made the subject really educative and helped us develop our communication skills. Your dedication and hardwork to this subject has really helped alot of students in becoming better speakers. We really appreciate the time you take in listening to what each of us have to say and I greatly admire you for that. Thank you for all the things you have done for us and never let anyone allow you to doubt your ability to teach.

Thank you Sir Betonio.

Thank you for everything, Sir! Thank you for making us realize that we are indeed capable of achieving more. As an individual who grew up with the idea that public speaking isn’t really for me, your subject matter and way of guiding us generally changed how I see myself. You helped me adhere to the idea that I am capable of becoming more. Thank you for everything Sir and we appreciate you so much!

Hi Sir Gerry!!

I want to start by saying how much I respect you—not just as a teacher, but as someone who is truly passionate about what they do. Even though you're a man of few words I’ve learned so much, not just about public speaking, but also about myself.

To be honest, your presence in class can sometimes make me anxious, but it’s the kind of anxiety I’m strangely grateful for. It pushed me to be more mindful of my mistakes and prepared me to face situations with accountability and confidence. Your teaching style might not be the ideal for everyone, even for me, but it brought me to talk about topics I never expected to talk about, and I appreciate that

Purposive Communication might not be my favorite subject, but it’s definitely one of the most important ones. And I’m happy, even proud, that you were the one who taught us. Your approach taught me to be mindful of how I say things and how some things can be said within just 60 words.

Thank you for being such a significant part of my journey here in AdDU

Salamuch <33,

Althea Padillo

P.S.

Inom na lang tubig sir, ayaw nang kape. :)

Hello, sir!

I want to express ✍🏻 my gratitude 🙏🏼 for your guidance 🗺️ throughout my purposive communication journey 🔎! I believe that you did a great job with your approach. The subject was not easy 😭; it was for sure exhausting, especially for me, who hated public speaking ❌, but it changed how I viewed things and helped me improve as a speaker 💡! I still have a lot of things to improve on myself, but this subject became a source of motivation for me 💪🏼! Hopefully, years from now, I'll be as great as you and my block mates 🌻.

With that, my classmates and I were lucky to be under your guidance and very thankful to be a part of your class 👨🏻‍🏫. Please don't doubt your teaching approach 😽, and know you did an excellent job ✅! I will hold the memories and lessons I gained from being in your class for the rest of my college journey. We LOVE you, sir! ♥️

Way back in my high school days, I was always scared to stand in front of a lot of people or even my classmates until I entered this institution. At first, I got scared because this thing was always on my mind: "I'm not good at this; they might judge me" or "I will not stay longer in this subject." A few weeks, months later, I felt, "Wait, I think I'm getting comfortable with these people." So, in the succeeding sessions, I slowly developed myself in talking in front of everyone, and I already established rapport with my classmates. I'm grateful for having this kind of subject, especially your teaching. If I hadn't experienced this kind of teaching style, I would have stayed as a boy who was always scared to express their thoughts in front of people. But this wouldn't have happened if I had not been in Mr. Betonio's class. Thank you, sir, for helping each one of us to enhance our talking skills. May God bless u always with abundant happiness and good health.
