| Introduction | I am a teacher of high school mathematics from the Philippines. I finished my BSE major in mathematics minor in Physics from the Bicol University and finished the academic requirements for MA in Education also from the same university. I did a Diploma in Mathematics Education by research at the Graduate School of Education in Osaka Kyoiku University from 2000-2001 with the main focus of my research on attitudes of Japanese junior high school towards mathematics. From 2002-2004 I worked for an MA in Educational & Differential Psychology at the Faculty of Psychology and Educational Science, Ludwig-Maximilians University in Munich, Germany. My main research area was on academic emotions of Grade 8 and 10 Filipino students. I have lived aside in the Philippines, also in Japan, and Germany before coming to Switzerland. |
