AN ILONGGA TEACHER IN SHANGHAI

      Shanghai is the most populous city in the People's Republic of China. It also ranks number one as the most populous city proper in the world. And in the midst of  them is a simple maiden from Iloilo City who was accepted as an English teacher  ten years after submitting her application.
       Ms. Jennifer Launio  Prudente is a graduate of Bachelor of Secondary Education major in Biology, who like other teachers  aims for economic advancement in life. Her bit in China as an English teacher proved to be very educational, as she discovered the many interesting facts in Shanghai.
       Fruits are abundant like grapes, apples, and pears, with some cents  you have a bundle of it. People are so polite and courteous, as opposite to what she had heard. They are so disciplined  that even at midnight , traffic lights are strictly  followed. especially the pedestrian crossings. Places are clean especially the roadsides. From their airport,

all you can see are beautiful postcard like sceneries.
       They have high regards to Filipino teachers, that made her stay comfortable. In fact,  she could stay there forever if not  for her family that she missed so much.
        After a year  and with a heavy heart she bids farewell to her Chinese students whom she already learned to love and vice-versa. Her students cried while wishing her to have a safe travel ...home.
