His life story continues to garner inspiration on social media, coming from a humble background and sometimes have nothing to eat but still attends school.
Angelito C. Perater Jr. who graduated cum laude was in tears after passing the board exam, and his video went viral online.
A 23-year-old education graduate and content creator from Cagayan De Oro was overcome with emotion upon learning that he had passed the Licensure Examination for Teachers (LET).
Angelito C. Perater, Jr.’s TikTok video went viral after he proudly shared his yet another achievement after graduating with a degree in Bachelor of Secondary Education, majoring in English.
In an interview, he shared the emotional reason behind his tears of joy upon discovering that he had passed the board exam and could now officially be called a licensed professional teacher (LPT).
“Ma, Pa! Pasado ako sa Board Exam for Teachers,” Angelito shared.
He shared that he felt immense pressure to succeed since he graduated as a Cum Laude and didn’t want to disappoint his parents, who had made significant sacrifices for him to complete his education.
“To be honest, I came from a humble background. We struggled, and my family’s livelihood was farming. If there was no harvest, there was nothing to eat. But as long as I could go to school, I always gave my best. I graduated as a Cum Laude, and the pressure of not passing the Board Exam for Teachers was also on my mind,” Angelito said.
“So when I found out that I passed, I couldn’t help but cry because I remembered all the hardships, my family’s sacrifices, and ALL our sacrifices were rewarded at the right time.”
Angelito, that time, also shared a message for his fellow board exam takers.
“I have three things to say to fellow Board takers based on my experiences. First, STUDY. It’s impossible to be knowledgeable about the questions that will come up in the exam if we don’t study and prepare.”
“Second, FOCUS. I know there are many important things in life, but prioritize your studies. I recommend enrolling in a review center.”
“Lastly and most importantly, PRAY. It’s free to pray and ask for forgiveness and help from the Lord. It’s all free, but the reward is immense.”
“I know we all have different ways of learning, but one thing I can assure is the same for all of us is prayer.”
Congratulations, Teacher Angelito!
