PLMun CTE - Mathematics Wizards' Society

ANNOUNCEMENT

The orientation and majorship qualifying examination schedule for qualified applicants to the Bachelor of Elementary Education and Bachelor of Secondary Education programs for Academic Year 2026-2027 has been published on the Online Admission Portal.

✨ Where numbers sparkle, formulas come alive, and learning becomes magic ✨

With every equation solved and every lesson shared, we continue to prove that Mathematics is not only about numbers—it is a powerful magic that can transform minds, inspire dreams, and create brighter futures. Through passion, creativity, and service, we turn simple lessons into meaningful experiences filled with wonder and learning.

Last March 26 & May 7, 2026, our Community Extension Program which opened a magical world of Mathematics and financial literacy for young learners. Through fun-filled activities, interactive games, and engaging discussions, we taught children the importance of budgeting and saving while helping them strengthen their understanding and management skills when it comes to money.

Like wise young mathematicians, the children discovered how every peso counts and how proper financial decisions can help them not only achieve their dreams but also support their families in the future. By making every lesson enjoyable and meaningful, we hope to inspire them to appreciate, enjoy, and truly love Mathematics.

Indeed, when learning is filled with magic, every child discovers the power hidden within numbers. 🔮📚💙

Celebrating milestones, growth, and excellence ✨

Our General Assembly last May 4, 2026 was more than just a gathering—it was a celebration of the achievements, dedication, and unity of our organization throughout the academic year. From our successful Community Extension Program, where we shared knowledge and inspired young learners through teaching mathematics to children, to meaningful meetings and collaborations with fellow organizations that strengthened our connections and leadership, every moment reflected our commitment to service and growth.

Of course, this event would not be complete without honoring the outstanding students from every year level who achieved academic excellence through their hard work and perseverance.

As we celebrate the accomplishments of the past year, we also warmly welcome and introduce the new set of officers who will lead our organization for the upcoming academic year. May this new chapter continue to inspire leadership, service, unity, and excellence.

Together, we grow. Together, we achieve. 💙📚✨

The orientation seminar for the upcoming project titled “Project Count on Me: Cultivating Outstanding Understanding in Numeracy through Tutoring and Mentoring Excellence” was successfully conducted and concluded on May 19, 2026, at Museo ng Muntinlupa.

The seminar was organized through the successful teamwork and partnership of the local government of Muntinlupa, DepEd Muntinlupa, Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Muntinlupa, and Lyceum of Alabang. It aimed to prepare future teachers taking up Bachelor of Elementary Education (BEED) at the Lyceum of Alabang and pre-service teachers from the Mathematics Wizard Society (MWS) at Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Muntinlupa, who will take part in Project Count on Me.

Present at the event were Dr. Fermae Tamayao, Dean of the College of Teacher Education (CTE) at PLMun, and Mr. Vincent Julius Buenavidez, Director of the Office of Student Affairs and Prefect of Discipline at Lyceum of Alabang (LOA).

The program started with a speech from Mr. Robert Del Monte, adviser of the Mathematics Wizards’ Society. He delivered his introductory message and officially introduced all guest speakers and lecturers for the seminar.

Congressman Jaime Fresnedi expressed his support for the project, while Councilor Jedidiah Presnedi stated that the seminar served not only as a venue for experience but also as an opportunity to understand the realities faced by the youth of Muntinlupa and how participants can help the community.

Mr. Lambert G. Quesada, Officer-in-Charge and Regional Supervisor in Mathematics, presented important data regarding the performance of young learners in numeracy in Muntinlupa. Based on his report, Muntinlupa consistently produces low emerging learners from Key Stage 1 to Key Stage 3, covering elementary up to high school level. He emphasized that this issue was very alarming and needed immediate action, which became the main reason why Project Count on Me was created to address the concern.

Dr. Lilia A. Ricero, Assistant Schools Division Superintendent, also delivered a message of inspiration. She emphasized that aside from knowledge, having a heart and love for teaching and children is essential in producing remarkable and outstanding students. She encouraged future educators to teach with passion and care.

Mr. Renato Mame, Master of Arts in Teaching, then shared his expertise by providing different kinds of techniques and strategies in teaching mathematics effectively to young learners. He also demonstrated methods on how to compute numbers faster and more easily.

Food and drinks were provided by Batang Juan, a non-government organization of Muntinlupa, and were served to all attendees. The seminar concluded successfully with high hopes and commitment from individuals involved. Project Count on Me is ready to move forward and be officially implemented to help young learners in Muntinlupa City achieve better results in Numeracy.

“Some people enter our lives like magic—quietly transforming us into something greater than we ever imagined.”

To our dear Program Chair, thank you for being more than just a leader to us Mathematics Wizards. You became our mentor, adviser, inspiration, and guiding star throughout our journey.

Like solving complex equations, college life was never easy but your guidance helped us find clarity amidst the confusion. You reminded us that teaching is not only about knowledge, but also about touching lives, inspiring hearts, and creating change. And somehow, with your wisdom and kindness, you made that feel like magic.

A great teacher may leave the classroom, but never the lives she helped shape. As your Mathematics Wizards, we will always carry the lessons, memories, and inspiration you shared with us.

No equation could ever measure how grateful we are for your patience, dedication, and unwavering belief in us. Wherever life’s next formula takes you, may success and happiness always follow.

Thank you, Dr. Gumban. Your influence will forever remain one of the most beautiful constants in our story. ✨📚➗

“Some equations are not solved by numbers alone, but by perseverance, passion, and purpose.”

From sleepless nights to countless lesson plans, from nervous recitations to prayers whispered before every exam — our alumni’s proved that success is never imaginary. They transformed pressure into power and turned dreams into reality.

In the grand formula of life, hard work + faith + dedication = destiny fulfilled.
Today, you are no longer variables chasing answers — you are the solution, the proof, and the magic itself.

Congratulations to our newly licensed educators! Your journey is a masterpiece written in both logic and wonder. 📚🪄➗
