 Reflection

different cultures each differ from one onether. It also helps us
to preserve our culture specially nowadays that everything is
rapidly changing.
• It is the responsibility of the Filipino educators to maintain the
good implications of Filipino Culture, help students develop
culture that can be adaptive and useful to the modern society,
and to protect Filipino students to the negative influences of
Filipino or foreign culture.
