“When the first sparkling Light of Dawn appears, the Shining Sun will certainly rise, which lights the Earth. When Kalyanamitta and Yonisomanasikara spontaneously join, one will certainly learn and grow, ascending through mindfulness to wisdom.” Bhikkhu P.A. Payutto
I am teaching English to grade 7 students at Roong Aroon High School since April 2022. “Roong Aroon” (รุ่งอรุณ) means “dawn” in the Thai language. The quotation below briefly tells the philosophy and vision of my school.
Education in Roong Aroon School deeply induces the seeds of goodness into the youth to learn and develop into complete human beings. Roong Aroon School prepares students to impact their future world by providing opportunities to become self-reliant, moral, and ethical leaders and lifelong learners. Our purpose of lifelong, holistic, and transformative learning is to develop a deep understanding of our common humanity and values and to cultivate and live a meaningful and purposeful life as independent, reflective, and active citizens.
