“Lisod jud mao ng nag ampo jud mi og pag ayo na ma okay ra to siya pero sa pagkinaunhan lisod jud siya,” she said.

According to Avelino, she was inspired to become a teacher by her late mother who was also a teacher before she passed away in 2016 due to complications caused by renal disease.

Avelino has been living with her father Narciso who is a fisherman and a village councilor in Loay.

According to Avelino, she is now looking forward to being employed and to follow in her mother’s footsteps. (RT)
