ABOUT
YOUR I’m John rex Garcia Pogoy, your FIC for
FACULTY Philippine Literature. I graduated Bachelor of
-IN- Secondary Education Major in English last 2018.
CHARGE
I started working as a teacher at the age
of 19. Before I entered TPC, I was the former
Junior High School Coordinator and School
Paper Adviser at Galbreath International School,
Tugas, Getafe, Bohol for 2 years. I handled all
English and Speech Classes in all high school
levels at GIS.

At present, I am a fulltime English Instructor here at Talibon Polytechnic

College and currently serves as one of the Head of the Documentation Team and
concurrently serves as one of the School Paper Adviser. Currently enrolled in graduate
studies at Mater Dei College taking Master of Arts in English Language Teaching. My
scholarly interests range widely from English Language Teaching to Speech
Enhancement to Literature and to Cultural Studies.

My teaching philosophy reflects my interests in affiliation and interaction. I

believe that teaching and education are not one size fits all. If a child can’t learn the
way we teach, maybe we should teach the way they learn. I am so delighted to have
you as my learner this semester. I look forward to a fun learning with all of you as co-
creators of wits.
