As 51Talk marks its 13th anniversary, the online education platform honored the Filipino teachers who have been the heart of its success during the Annual Teachers’ Day event held recently at the SMX Convention Center Manila. This grand celebration brought together exceptional 51Talk teachers from across the Philippines, highlighting the brand’s dedication to empowering Filipino educators for the global stage.
This year’s annual celebration was filled with energy and excitement, offering activities that fostered community, professional growth, and plenty of enjoyment. Teachers participated in a fun-filled laughter yoga session designed to help them bring joy and positivity into their classrooms. During the recognition ceremony, 51Talk honored its outstanding educators, celebrating their excellence, dedication, and expertise in virtual teaching. 51Talk’s leadership expressed deep appreciation for the profound impact teachers have on their students. After years of virtual events, the joy of reuniting in person was evident, as teachers celebrated and danced to lively music, enjoying the moment with their co-educators.
In his welcome speech, Jack Huang, Founder and CEO of 51Talk, emphasized the unparalleled contributions of Filipino teachers to the platform’s worldwide reach: “You are not only imparting knowledge but shaping the future, one student at a time.
