First and foremost, we would like to thank God, for bestowing upon us the

knowledge and intelligence for us to come up with this study, and for keeping us safe and

guided all throughout the experiment.

Next, we would like to express our thanks to the teachers and advisers: Ma’am

Sheila Mari Lazaro, Ma’am Marilou Cabili, Ma’am Joy Pattuinan, Ma’am Yvonne

Branzuela and Sir Arvin Sumobay, for the continuous support and guidance throughout

the research and the writing. Thank you for the patience, motivation, and immense

knowledge. Without your precious support and advice, it would have been impossible to

conduct this research.

We would also like to express our sincerest gratitude to our families, for all the

encouragement and support to continue our research study. They were there every step of

the way, financially, spiritually, and emotionally. Without them, there would be no push

to the right direction.
