Prof. Susana Melon-Galvez Ph. D
Dr. Susana Melon-Galvez holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Secondary Education Major in English, a Master of Arts Degree with Specialization in English Language Arts at Philippine Normal University and Doctor of Philosophy in Educational Management at Bulacan State University.
After teaching for more than 30 years, she has embraced the responsibility not only to encourage students to learn the language but also for them to realize the value of using the second language to become agents of social change. As a teacher, her role should not be underestimated while she strives and struggles to put her best foot forward to deliver very effectively unmindful of criticisms. To her, commitment and dedication to work is something she owes not to man, that whatever she does to her students is her gift to God.
