| with my Anuban 1 (K-1) learners |
I came here in Thailand on March 2006. Before that I used to be a college instructor in the Philippines for almost three years. Teaching is my passion and it runs in our blood-my mom is a teacher, my dad is training teachers and both of my brothers who’s next to me are also teachers. Do I need to mention that my hubby, sis-in-law, aunties and uncles are all teachers too? Maybe we all like the idea that teaching is the profession that teaches all the other professions
.
My son , Hyzvhann Hyzydyll “Hyzyd” is the main reason why I started blogging. I wanted to chronicle his life’s journey online so that his grandparents will be able to “see” him grow even we’re miles away. I wanna express my gratitude for my friends Ate Litlit, Ate Love and Ate Janet for the motivation and inspiration to start a blog on my own. They’re also my channel of information that I could earn while blogging. Since then I’m unstoppable…LOL! To date, I have 7 blogs with their own domains- Adventures with Hyzyd and Beyond, Tasty Exploration, Away from Home, Fashion Explorer, Genefaith’s Home, Teaching Moments plus this main blog.
How do I juggle blogging with my hectic schedule? Since last year, I wake up as early as 3:00 am to start blogging and stop at 5:00 am to prepare breakfast for the family, send my 2-year old to his babysitter and be at school before 8:00 am. When I have lots of online tasks, I squeeze them into my lunch break from 11:30 am-1:00 pm. I don’t blog in the evening because I train my son to be on bed before 9:00 pm. That means I’ll be snoring my night away starting that time. I started to appreciate what my mom used to say “Early to bed and early to rise makes “my lil Gen-gen” healthy, wealthy and wise”
.
I’m Genebei Faith. I am a Filipino ESL Teacher here in Thailand . I’m Gene to my family but Teacher Jenny here in the “Land of Smiles”. I’m married for 3 years already to my only boyfriend 
and we got a 2-year old bubbly son. We started a family in this promising foreign land in year 2007 and Thailand became our second home since then. By the way, many asked me if my hubby’s a Thai. Nope, he’s not. He’s a pure-bred Filipino.
It’s a pleasure meeting all of you. There will be times that it takes time to visit you back but I promised I’ll be there anytime I’m free. And if ever you’ll visit Thailand, don’t hesitate to drop me a line. I’ll be here waiting for you in Hatyai City with open arms and sweet smile

Hi, gene! Nice to see you here at WBFC!
Where did you get the idea for Hyzyd's name? It is really very unique. Good thing you and your husband are teachers coz you'd probably need more lots of patience teaching him how to spell and write it.
Do come and visit my toddlers again at http://www.totteringmama.com.
Hi Gene! Nice to meet you! We all get to be teachers one way or another. You're on the right track!
