It all started with a desire. And that desire is the desire in my part to express myself but is also about the desire to help when there is something that needs to be done. I started thinking about volunteering when I was thinking of volunteering in a foreign country. You see a few years ago, a friend introduced me to VSO, an international volunteering organization based in the United Kingdom. And that started the desire for me to volunteer but that is in a foreign country not here in my country. On second thoughts, I realized that any good thing should start at home. So when I saw the Constructing Learning Through Technology (CLT) page in Facebook, I quickly got attracted to their ideals and admired what Jon Mannion had been doing for a lot of learners in the CLT centers. On August 30, 2011, I first met Jon Mannion in his Outreach effort in Eastwood Mall, which ran from August 29th to the 31st. On that day too, I was able to meet, Ms Kat Pauso, the Project Manager in the Brgy. San Antonio eSkwela Center, in Pasig City. I wanted to become a mentor in this center because it was close to my house in Taytay, Rizal. This is how it all started ; and this is my first journey into the world of being a mentor-volunteer!
