    Hi Joan,

    Do you know if there is a good Shadow Teacher who could assist my son in school and be his tutor at the same time? I would want to have one who lives in Paranaque since we are from here or somewhere near us so we can take her with us to school and drop her after.

    Hope you could help us. I would want someone with good training.

    Regards,
    Maryanne Palacio

    Hi Joan!
    Thanks for the info. Eye of the Philippines is non-operational already. Got sad because that’s nearest school in our place. Most schools that accepts students with visual impairment are in Pasay and QC. It’s quite far from our place ( We’re from Muntinlupa). Thank you so much!

  15. joan wrote on 26. Feb 2010

    Oh! Sorry about that. Thank you for the update. Yeah most of the schools are in Pasay and QC. When you already found a school for him hope you’d update us. Thank you.
