Why I chose this new hotel for our English study trip in Clark?

Over the years, seeing so many parents at the language school,
what touches me most is that exhausted look the reluctance to give yourselves a break.

Today at Loom Ramble, standing on that sun-drenched balcony looking over the lush greenery of Clark, I realized: being a study guardian doesn't mean sacrificing your quality of life.

A coffee shop downstairs, and only a 10-minute walk to school. In a city without the suffocation of skyscrapers, give yourself some breathing room. If the kids are learning happily, we deserve to live comfortably, too.

Beyond "learning English," I hope you find a long-lost peace here. What’s the one thing in a hotel room that truly helps you relax?

----------------------

為什麼我們選擇這家新旅館?

今天來到學校旁的Clover hotel,
站在那個採光極好的小陽台,
看著克拉克滿城的綠意,
我突然想跟所有家長說:
陪讀,不代表要犧牲自己。

下樓就能喝杯咖啡,
步行10分鐘就到學校。
在沒有高樓壓迫感的城市裡,
給自己留一段空白,
孩子學得開心,我們也要住得舒心。

比起「學好英文」,
我更希望你們在這裡,
找回久違的平靜。你們覺得,
外宿時最能讓你放鬆的空間是哪裡?

The one thing parents ask me more than "Which teacher is best?"

In my years of running a school,
I've realized that you can have the best teachers in the world,
but if a student isn't sleeping well or eating nutritiously,
the brain just shuts down. This week, our kitchen is serving up mushroom soup and fresh salads
small things that make a big difference in how a student feels.

To all the parents out there:
we're keeping them fed and happy so they can focus on being brave.

Parents, what's the one dish your kids always ask for when they come home?
I'd love to get some inspiration for our school Cafeteria! 👇

What 30 days in the Philippines taught my twin sons that textbooks couldn't

Am I a 'bad mom' for taking my son to the Philippines right before his high school entrance exams? 😂

I struggled with this for months. But after 30 days at Hana Academy, watching my 9th grader laugh with friends from across the globe and seeing my twins become so much more confident, I have zero regrets. We found an 'International Classroom' that no cram school could ever replicate.

Special thanks to the incredible staff who made us feel like family.

Parents, tell me: would you prioritize a life experience over a big exam, or is it too risky? I’d love to hear your honest take! 👇

Is this a coffee cup or a bucket? Welcome to the Philippines!
Meet the man who drinks 3 liters of caffeine every single day

After living in the Philippines for two years, I've realized 'local life' is full of delightful absurdities.

Take my manager Min. he's a legend at our school, mostly because he's always holding this 1,000cc monster coffee! ☕️

I finally found the source:
A hidden gem tucked right next to a car wash. This is the ultimate Filipino vibe,
getting your car cleaned while sipping a latte bigger than your face for just a few pesos.

It's cheap, it's massive, and it's honestly a bit insane. I've mastered the 'chill' lifestyle here, but finishing three of these a day like Min? I'm still not on that level! 😂

Could you handle this 1,000cc beast?
Or would you be up all night?
Drop a comment and tell me:
How many cups of coffee do you need to survive the day?

樂齡夏令營:
兩週的度假,換來一輩子的回憶

一人也成團!
給那些勇敢出發的長輩一份最暖心的禮物

小時候,是爸媽牽著我們的手去認識世界。
長大後,我們帶著孩子出國留學,
心裡卻總掛念著留在老家的他們。

「帶孩子去菲律賓三個月,那爸媽怎麼辦?」這是我在語言學校最常聽到的猶豫。
直到今年,我們決定為 50+ 的長輩們辦一場「樂齡夏令營」。不是為了讓他們學會艱深的文法,而是讓他們在熱帶的陽光下,
找回那顆久違的、好奇的心。

我看到有些長輩,原本擔心自己英文不好,結果卻在克拉克的咖啡廳裡,用簡單的單字跟當地人聊得開懷大笑。我看見他們每天早上在校園散步,下午去游泳,晚上跟著我們一起吃芒果。

---------------

解決長輩出國的三大痛點:
安全、預算、還有孤單

最讓家長安心的,是我們解決了所有的「不方便」。長輩出門最怕迷路或坐車麻煩,我們安排了 10km 內的免費接送;他們怕報價複雜,我們就把雜費全部透明化。甚至,如果你們跟朋友一起湊滿 6 個人,還有一份驚喜回饋,就像是老友組團出國度假一樣簡單。

一人報名就成團,因為我們知道,
每一份勇氣都值得被尊重。

今年夏天,別再讓爸媽在視訊電話那頭說「不用管我們,你們玩得開心就好」。
把他們帶上吧!讓孩子在學英文的同時,看見爺爺奶奶也在熱情地生活。
這才是真正的「全家海外生活」。

你也曾想過帶爸媽一起出國遊學嗎?
還是最擔心長輩在國外的哪些問題?

The biggest change I saw in my child after 365 days of "accidental" study abroad.

Does every study abroad journey need a perfect plan?

In 2025, I took my 7-year-old to the Philippines for a 3-month course. One "accidental" school tour and a "Mom, I want to stay" later, we ended up living there for a year.

Solo parenting abroad was exhausting—the chores, the house hunting, the logistics. But seeing him tan from the sun, brave in the pool, and speaking English with a smile made every struggle worth it.

We’re heading home now, healthy and full of memories. Sometimes, the best thing a parent can do is just say "yes" to the unexpected.

What’s the most "impulsive" thing you’ve ever done for your child’s growth? 👇

#studyenglishinthephilippines #StudyEnglish #菲律賓遊學

Some places are enough after one visit
others make you want to bring your family back again.

Taking your kids abroad to learn English, the biggest fear isn't the tuition,
but the kids being restless or the parents feeling overwhelmed.

Recently, I was touched by Lily's story.
She came with her husband and found that learning isn't just about textbooks
it's a dynamic environment. The teachers know how to guide,
making learning flexible and fun.

The most beautiful part is the whole family meeting people from all over the world.
Watching your kids speak English naturally...
that's a kind of pride only parents truly understand.

If you had a second chance,
would you want to take your family on a "learning adventure"?

------------------

有些地方去過一次就夠了,有些地方卻讓你還想帶家人再來!

帶孩子出國學英文,最怕的不是學費,而是孩子坐不住,或是大人自己壓力爆表。
最近聽完學員 Lily 的分享很有感。她帶著先生一起來,發現這裡不只是死讀書,
而是一個充滿生命力(Dynamic)的空間。老師懂引導,讓學習變得彈性又有趣。
最美的是,全家人在這裡遇見世界各地的朋友,看著孩子自然地開口說英文,
那種欣慰真的只有當爸媽的才懂。

如果有第二次機會,
你也會想帶全家人一起來一場「學習壯遊」嗎?

What defines a successful business?
It’s not IPOs, but being remembered for your kindness. 🎂

Today we celebrated our school's 'Big Dad,' Bryan. The surprise was entirely planned by our teachers and staff—even I was kept in the dark!

Bryan isn't aggressive; he’s quiet, but during the toughest times, he quietly carries the weight to ensure every staff member is cared for like family.

This is why I'm here: warmth. When a leader makes his team truly want to celebrate him, that’s the kind of environment where I want kids and adults to learn.

If you believe 'human touch' matters more than 'competitiveness,'

leave a ❤️ for this kind-hearted leader!

-------------

什麼是成功的企業家?
不是上市櫃,而是被人記住你的『好』。🎂

今天慶祝我們學校大家長布萊恩的生日,
這場驚喜完全是老師跟員工自發策劃的,
連我都被瞞在鼓裡。

布萊恩不強勢,甚至話不多,
但在公司最難時,他默默扛住壓力,
把每個人照顧得像家人。

這就是我留在這裡的原因:溫度。
當一個領導者能讓員工打從心底想為他慶生,這種環境,才是我想讓孩子跟大人們安心學習的地方。

如果你也覺得『人情味』比『競爭力』更動人,請給這位溫馨的大家長一個 ❤️ 吧!

Who says retirement is the end? Even a veteran doctor is here to study English. After 20 years in the clinic, he's showing us how to truly "restart" a life

Just read an inspiring reflection from a 20-year veteran doctor who studied at Hana Academy. After trading his stethoscope for a dictionary, he learned not just English, but how to swim, ride a Jeepney, and truly live local life. He said English is a lifelong task, and even a few more steps make a huge difference. Seeing him connect with children in the school, I realized education is about more than scores. It's about passion. Would you have the courage to restart in a new place? Let me know.

他是一位有20年資歷的醫生在我們學校的心得,感觸好深。
他本來要去馬達加斯加傳教,卻因為疫情轉彎來到菲律賓。他放下醫生的身分,在這裡學游泳、搭吉普尼、跟廚師學泡菜、甚至去 80 塊的小理髮店剪頭。

他說:「英文是這輩子都要背負的作業,多走幾步,世界就不一樣。」
看著他在校園裡跟小朋友們玩在一起,我才發現,最好的教育不是教你考滿分,而是教你「如何熱愛生活」。
你呢?如果給你三個月,你敢不敢放下現在的身分,去一個陌生的地方重新開始?

Stop looking for the most expensive school. Look for the one your child won't want to leave

Is it worth taking your child to study abroad for a month? I used to worry about the 'perfect' school. But seeing my 4th grader come home from HANA Academy with messy hair from dodgeball and a huge smile because he finally understood his teacher... that’s the real ROI.

It’s not just about the 8 classes a day. It’s the late-night ramen in the dorm, the weekend trips to Safari, and the freedom of walking to the supermarket across the street. We didn't need the fanciest hardware; we needed the warmest heart. If you’re looking for a high-value, high-warmth escape where both you and your child can actually relax—let’s chat. Clark really surprised me.
