Superma’am is a telefantastic series aired in the Philippines, on GMA-7 TV network every
weekdays evening. It is a story of a teacher who was chosen to become a
superhero. Inside the classroom, she is known to be Ma’am Minervah, but during
troubles, she known as Superma’am. As a teacher, her job is save the learners
from ignorance, but as a superhero, her work is to save the humanity from
wickedness. The series is a hit especially in children for it is a superhero
story, plus it talks about teachers whom are greatly admired by the public.
The question then is,
how can a typical teacher become like Superma’am? As a viewer of the
‘fantaserye’ and as a teacher personally, I have come up with five tips to be
like her. These are the things Superma’am has. I called it the 5Ms and I have
relate it to the teaching and learning process. To become like her, it is
necessary to become:
1. MAKATAO. Like Superma’am, teachers need to think at others first. The
learners should be the first priority in the process. All approach and
instructions must be at the interest of the students.
2. MAKAKALIKASAN. We only have one home, the Earth. So, it is just a must
for the teachers to teach the next generation to value and take care of only
home. Also, teachers should first become a model of a concern inhabitant of the
Earth. Lessons such as proper waste management, minimizing global warming,
fighting pollution and the like should be emphasized.
3. MAKADIYOS. Students should be taught to become grateful and have faith
to the Almighty One. Additionally, values should be a part of the teaching and
learning process. Teachers must understand that there is always a lesson that
can be learned in every subject area. If the teachers fail to become makadiyos
and teach the value to the students, it might be possible to produce an
educated monsters in the future.
4. . MAKABANSA. Nationalism and patriotism should be emphasized and modeled
by the teachers. Students should feel the pride of being a Filipino citizen and
never become inferior about it.
5. MAKAPANGYARIHAN. Well, you have read it correct. In reality, there is no
such thing as a super power that can beat a thousand evil one at one time.
However, in reality as well, there is really a great super power that can do
all things. This is the most important thing Superma’am has, love. No one would
disagree that love is a powerful thing in this world. Thus, to become a
powerful teacher, one should possess love. Without this power, a teacher will
surely find the teaching and learning process difficult.
Hence, how to become
like Superma’am? Well, just possess the famous core values of a Filipino
citizen, plus be powerful with love.
