Distance Learning

My sister is in Manila right now to get a course on Theater or Drama or Acting, whichever comes first. She is a very good actress and a definite thespian: heart, mind and body. She breathes theater like it's the only thing that she can live for. Whew.. Well, she has the talent, so let her be. She is not only good in the craft, she is also a very good trainer with a passion to transform the world of theater and educate the new generation, helping them develop a taste for culture and the arts through theater.

Before she left, I always asked her if she could simply enrol in a distance learning course. That way she stays here in Cagayan de Oro and still be able to get a degree in it. As I already checked available schools offering online classes for their distance learning program. That is easier because we have the Internet connection. But of course, there is the traditional distance learning process where learning materials are sent to the learner's address so with examination papers and all other necessary documents. The learner learns on his or her own pace without ever leaving home.

But then again, on my sister's part, she was given an opportunity to work also in the same setting, which could help her very much when she leaves for Singapore for her TTRP scholarship to start... Oh well, it's all up to the learner. wink..wink...
