Reflection #02 - Home Visit

Another insight that struck many of us concerns a lesson we just had in one of our Tulong Dunong classes which is that of justice. In visiting the homes of our T.D. students, we were able to discover a different side of them; a side that is often hidden behind their cheerful and youthful faces—the side of poverty. Learning about their difficult and often complicated conditions was disheartening, and so we felt compelled to do something about. Although we are not able to help them in terms of finances then as T.D. tutors, we felt challenged to give to them what is actually due—a wholehearted preparation for every single tutoring session.
