How did you get started in the field of education, blogging, and freelance digital marketing, and what motivated you to pursue these career paths simultaneously?
I started my career in Business Consulting, but later on, I discovered my passion for teaching when I tried it out and found that I enjoyed it. Alongside teaching, I also had an interest in digital marketing, which led me to work as a freelance digital marketer for local brands in the Philippines and international brands from the US and UK markets. In 2017, I began blogging, primarily focusing on marketing topics, and eventually, it evolved into lifestyle blogging, where I shared my insights on food, events, travels, and life hacks. The motivation to pursue these career paths simultaneously came from my genuine passion for teaching and marketing, and my blog became a platform to combine and share my interests with others.

Flexibility in my approach and implementing various teaching strategies help me navigate these challenges and create a positive and inclusive learning environment.

As an educator and digital marketer, do you find that cultural factors or societal expectations influence your work in any way, and if so, how do you navigate them?
Cultural factors and societal expectations play a significant role in both my roles as an educator and a digital marketer. Understanding and respecting cultural diversity are essential in education to create an inclusive classroom environment. I recognize and appreciate my students’ backgrounds, beliefs, and traditions, which helps foster a positive learning experience for everyone.

How do you maintain a work-life balance while juggling multiple professional roles as an educator, blogger, and freelance digital marketer?
Maintaining a work-life balance can be challenging, especially with multiple professional roles. To manage it effectively, I follow these practices Set boundaries, Prioritize tasks, Take breaks, Learn to say no, and Seek support which allows me to share responsibilities and reduce the workload.
Can you share any inspiring or memorable moments from your teaching career that have significantly impacted you as an educator?
Throughout my teaching career, I’ve had many inspiring and memorable moments. One that stands out is when a struggling student I worked closely with finally grasped a complex concept.
Witnessing the joy and sense of achievement on their face was incredibly rewarding. It reminded me of educators’ profound impact on their student’s lives and the importance of patience and dedication in teaching.
Another memorable moment was when a former student expressed gratitude for my positive impact on their life. They shared how my teaching and mentorship inspired them to pursue their passion and achieve their goals. Such moments reaffirm my commitment to education and motivate me to make a difference in my student’s lives.
Since you are an educator and a digital marketer, if given a chance to create a new mobile application, what type of application or feature are you planning to develop, and what will you name it?
If I could create a new mobile application, I would develop an app that helps teachers and educators better understand and implement digital marketing techniques in the education sector. The app would be named “Thinkable Box” 🙂
