00:00We didn't see anything earlier. I thought there were no more houses inside, but there are still a lot of people living here.

00:08When we arrived at Sitio Pinaganakan, we had to walk a long way to the so-called classroom of the divers.

00:30Ouch! Wait a minute. They pinched my leg.

00:45We haven't walked for two minutes yet. Their terrain here is a bit challenging.

01:00This is the classroom of the divers.

01:16At the same time, the old divers come inside this small cave.

01:24You'd think there'd be a council of elders.

01:30But they're not.

01:36But their attitude is different.

01:41They are the students of the para-teacher, Ma'am Melona.

01:50Their ages are not mentioned because they all don't have birth certificates.

01:57The classroom is inside the hall of their house.

02:08There's a small blackboard and a few pieces of paper and pencil.

02:14Even though we're old, we still have hope to learn.

02:20That's why everyone is interested.

02:26One, two, three, four.

02:31The schedule of the class is marked when each student is free.

02:36Their students, neighbors, and neighbors.

02:43There's no signal in Sitio Pinaganakan.

02:47That's why the students are already in class.

02:50If I tell them what time it is, when they're done praying, they go to the classroom.

02:58Since they have little knowledge of reading,

03:02Ma'am Melona shows them flashcards.

03:13But the class is getting slower.

03:17But the class is getting slower when it's time to write the lecture.

03:22They can write all the names, but they can't write the names of the seniors at the same time.

03:29Because the eyes will get blurry.

03:32They will wait for one to finish so they can borrow the flashcards.

03:37This flashcard was bought for 50 pesos.

03:41This flashcard was bought for 50 pesos.

03:44An antipara that was given to an old student by Ma'am Melona.

04:01Ma'am Melona will start first, then the antipara will be given to the next student.

04:08Are you okay with sharing the flashcards?

04:11Yes, my eyes are blurry when I'm reading.

04:15Yes, when you're writing.

04:19Okay.

04:21Her grade seems high.

04:23Because her grades are blurry for me.

04:25Her grades are high.

04:27My grades are 100-100, but her grades are still blurry for me.

04:31I think her grades are around 200.

04:38That's why the scene in the classroom is usually like this.

04:41The scene in the classroom is usually like this.

05:11Some of the students haven't started their activities yet.

05:16Because they are still waiting for the flashcards.

05:18Because their eyes are blurry, they can't do it.

05:32They are measuring the length of the forehead of the students to learn.

05:41Hey!

05:44Hey!

05:48Hey!
