“There are many times po talaga na sukong-suko na ako at ayaw ko na mag-review. Nakakapagod at ang hirap kasi hindi naman ako ganoon katalinuhan pero talaga kailangan ng determination and effort also consistency sa pag-review,” Pelayo said.

“Iyong mga teachers ko are very approachable and friendly… I can always rely on them… Mga pangalawang ina na namin sila dito sa HCC, maraming salamat po sa walang sawang suporta sa aming mga students,” she added.
