@@MsJelena Privet Jelena! Just one advice from your German subscriber from Berlin. German education system will be crumbling together with the already declining economy and security as well. Even there in BW countryside. It will not get any better but definitely worse by the day. Rent your apartment. there are plenty of management companies available for that matter. Your ex-husband can prepare your flat for that matter and remove your personal belongings. You don't make much money but even a few hundred a month are enough for sustaining life in the PI. I plan to do the same with my place in Berlin. Additionally your YT income should be plenty enough to provide you the amount of money you need for your life on Samal. Educate your children online (home schooling) in Russian and get a tutor for additional English lessons if necessary. And after one year you can evaluate if that is working out for you and perhaps until then you make enough money to afford the fees for a nice private school in Davao (1500 $ a year). Happy mom, happy children. Which is enough not even to consider to go back to Germany. Not to mention that Russian online education is better than public school education in Germany. Last advice: Find another steady income stream. I mentioned you that before. Look into algo trading. It's fairly easy to do. Confusing and a steep learning curve at the beginning but then low maintenance once it's set up and running. I do that already. And will be moving to Davao either next year or the year after. I'm only keep staying in Germany for the sake of my old parents.
I think since they are young if you immerse your kids in a new school with new language, they will adapt and learn. Get them an English language teacher from the Philippines. Let them play with Filipino kids on the street so that they can learn the language.
Hi Jelena! Most celebrities and other families who have a busy schedule in Philipines opted for Home Schooling. Some home schooling in the Philippines are international home schooling. They offer English language mostly. It will help your kids balance studies and traveling. My son did the same while he was new here in Dubai last year.
Its not much, but here's a gift for your kids to maybe help pay for their school supplies. May God continue to bless you and yours! Aloha from Hawaii 🤙🏾🏄🏽♂️🌴
Online study is also okay my grandaughter study online for 3years during pandemic and if you want in private school in cavite it is good also because they use english language you can afford the tuition and other expenses coz it is affordable you can continue vlogging there are so many beautiful places in luzon that you can visit and make travel vlog we will support your channel by watching your vlogs and no skipping ads

If u can afford a private school . And also the kids will adapt well in language . It's hard at the beginning but see what your priorities and happiness.
Hi Jelena I’m James one of your subscribers you know what my suggestion it’s better in cavity to go school for your children and beside that you already here in the Philippines just continue to explore I know it’s so hard to start but just keep on praying and God give you the best way thank you very much I’m also from California USA and I start good life here in the Philippines mabuhay 😊
Jelena has found her home in Samal island and so the kids will have online classes. I hope their German school has an online program that they can use. In the US the county schools have online programs for kids bedridden at home, for families who want to travel abroad too. It will be good if their school in Germany can provide online classes .
There are also parents in the Philippines sending their kids via online classes. I think it is USA curriculum but recognized by Dept. Of Education in the Philippines.
I had the same problem you do when i went to Davao, last year. Ateneo de Davao is a very good school, we spoke to the principal and the accountant. Its very well secured and have extra curricular activities, like swimming, horse back riding, etc, etc for $1,600.... a year per kid. I don't know if it meets your budget, but look and see
I ask Filipinez, he said that his nephew and niece that will be going to the Philippines 🇵🇭 by the end of this month, he said his nephew and niece will take online classes while they are in the Philippines 🇵🇭
My little brother and sister were homeschooled during their grade and high school years. They probably started in 2005. When they finished high school, they entered college with no problems, and now they’ve both graduated and have decent jobs. Homeschooling was hard for them in the first month, but after that, they started enjoying it a lot. Your kids should each have their own desktop or laptop. They can share a table or have their own, but the environment should be quiet. No loud music, although I think your neighbors love to sing karaoke.😅
Jelena, elementary and high school are the most memorable education years of any child. So let your kids continue their elementary education in Germany with their father. If you still want to live in Samal Is., you can have your kids spend their school vacation in the Philippines but try to visit them in Germany from time to time, especially on special occasions. Jelena, do not miss this time of your children's life, the memories when your children are growing up, learning about themselves, their lives, friends, parents, relatives, places, events, occasions... Children grow so fast. In a few years, whether you like it or not, your children will leave you; and have their own lives. So... your priority now, at their age, are your children. And you, you can manage yourself well; and your children know that. God bless you all. 🌞💪💞💐😘
Honestly i wouldn't recommend any school in Germany. The education system here (i am German) is failing completely. It's merely indoctrination with very little to no proper knowledge teaching anymore. Home schooling in Russian on Samal or a private school in Davao is definitely better. They learn English on the go (perhaps with some extra lessons) and Bisaya/Tagalog too. Also way cheaper in each and every way (by costs of living and education and compared to flying around forth and back) and Jelena has her kids all the time around as that is what she wants (and very probably the children too). Instead their father could come on over to the Philippines as he once did (for vacation). That with the father doesn't work as supposed anymore. When you watch all the videos of her you'll see it. Plus, Germany and the collective West are crumbling and will end up in a few years being type of unruling forth world countries with no culture, security, freedom and functioning economy, education and healthcare. It's already obvious.
Hi Jelena, you look more blooming today but honest, you always are. Since you have already decided for an "online study" for your kids, see what happens after a year. You can then evaluate if they are learning, if it's worth a way to school them or better be in a school. By that time also maybe you will have the means to send them to an international school.and or be guided on where they should really study. Wish you the best for the 3 of you. God bless.❤
Dear Jelena, we know your situation and pray for you and your kids 🙏🏼 You do a really great job on UA-cam. We hope it is soon enough to afford the privat school you want 🙏🏼 Greetings Susanne & Ariel
In the Philippines Catholic school is good however it just expensive but they will take good care of them especially they are foreign. They will love them. Online schooling is good.
You are truly in a very difficult situation. Education is very important most especially in a very young age. If only both kids are proficient in English , it will not be a problem whether they go to a public or private school. My honest opinion is better to go back to Germany for the meantime to continue your children’s education so that they will not miss out the grade level they should be in right now. Then enroll them in English classes so by next school year they can study already in the Philippines. It will be an advantage to your children that they can be multilingual- Russian, German, English and hopefully, they will,learn speak Tagalog too. Sacrifice just one year for the education of your children. But of course , whatever your decision, we will still support and love you. It’s not easy to be a single parent. And you are blessed that you have understanding and Loving children. God Bless All of you🙏❤️❤️❤️
Both kids are proficient in Russian and Russia has the far superior education next to China and Japan in the world. German education system is already declining heavily and produces nothing anyone would call a decent education anymore. Home schooling in Russian is perfect. And the kids can learn nicely at home and learn Russian, English and Bisaya at the same time. They probably will even remember some German after the years to come. But it's not even necessary. Since they are speaking Russian as their home language (and are therefore basically Russians) they could even go to Russia some day. The only ark of European high culture left there.
It's hard but it's you to decide what is best for your children.. like you said it's their future.. so you have to do what is good for them. Pray asking God for guidance 🙏 🤔❤️ what ever it is we're here to support you. . Please we help her (Jelena) for not skipping ads 😊
You can research for Angelicum College. They have a home study program which is perfect for kids who cannot attend school physically. The good thing is they also have a chance to go to school from time to time so they can mingle with their classmates in person. The school is also non-graded and self-paced. It's in Quezon City.
I totally agree and support your suggestion and plan for the education of your kids while they are in the Philippines. Yes, try the online learning (education/schooling) for now at least they will be at par with the standard of education in Europe (Germany & Russia) I honestly feel it can work the only downside that I see of this system is that Emma and Dominic may get bored on the long run cause online -study will be no social interaction with other classmates. (Correct me if I`m wrong) But you mentioned, that during the pandemic that is what`s being done to educate continuously children. This is a very good alternative for your kids Jelena. I`m supporting you on this idea. Go,go,go!... 🙂
@@MsJelena, the kids must be exposed to schooling/learning inside the classroom with the interaction of other learners as this is important in their age to develop all the skills needed in learning which cannot be acquired through online studies.
@@gloriaquimpo9726 They can acquire those skills after (home)school. Online school nowadays is proven to be adequate to usual teaching in average schools. I agree nonetheless that a good private school might be better. There are plenty available in the PI and Davao proper. Perhaps even on Samal. Also very affordable ones (about the price for a flight ticket from Germany to PI). Plus the costs of living in the PI are about a fifth to a tenths compared with Germany.
Just do online school it’s flexible to your time… give them extra lesson for personal tutorial native dialect…keep them hydrated… drink a lot of water.
Home School is your best option. Just hire a tutor to come to your place. Try not to delay the studies for your kids, that will just put them in a disadvantage.
I don't buy that home school also because children needs socialization, they need to be exposed and play with other children too. Otherwise they won't achieve their developmental stages, that will affect them when they grow older.
I think online schooling is good for older kids but since Emma and Dominic are still very young, they need to interact with other kids in the same age group. Since Germany has free schooling and has the best schools, and they speak the language already, it would be best for them to get their education there. Also, their dad will be closer. They can always visit the Philippines during school breaks. Also heard about the kids of Max that got bullied in Samal so they left and moved to Bali. Hope your kids don’t get bullied in Samal. Just my thoughts, but I am sure you have thought hard about this already and know what is best for all of you. Take care always and God bless. 🥰
Unfortunately Germany doesn't have good schools anymore. The whole education system produces millions of indoctrinated children with no knowledge whatsoever. Millions can't even write and read. That's official statistic, not just hearsay. And it only will get worse. It's really horrible. They don't even have enough teachers anymore to maintain any scheduled lessons. So, for instance they nowadays combine maths, physics and chemistry lessons into one. And only one lesson per week. I never ever would send my kids to any school in the collective West. Especially not in the US, UK, Germany. For Jelenas kids homeschooling in Russian language is perfect. Combined with English lessons and some Bisaya lessons. After school (at home) they still have enough time to run around and meet other children in the neighbourhood.
Speaking as a mother, you could not prioritize the kids and you at the same time, once you have children your priority change. Good basic education will mold their future. Our country has good private & international school, unfortunately they are expensive. I've been living in the US for most of my life and few years in Switzerland. I know how high the standard of their educational system. It will be the. kids advantage if they go school in Europe, they'll be closer to their father. Please make sure the kids learn English as their 2nd language, it will be their advantage. Good luck on your kids online schooling.
Children should have happy mother for good happy life. Many years while I was not happy and sacrifice for them staying in Germany. Kids feel everything and they are constantly sick and behave terrible while mom is depressed and feel bad. Took me years to understand but my well being is the same priority as their education.
If there is a private school in Samal maybe you can check if it is possible for your kids to study there. Or online or home study is more flexible and all three of you will be happy!
I remember when I was elementary school, teachers would speak Tagalog or English. I don't know anymore today. I suggest go to school talk to a principal or a school counselor. Find out how they teach the kids in school. Private school is also another options. Try it.
It is much better if you take them first to tutorial lessons for English. They also have to learn tagalog because it is the Philippine mother tongue and major transactions are spokrn in both English and tagalog. But take English lessons first, everything will follow.
Hi Jelena, It's about time to give up your dreams about tropical island live . I had the same dream s ,but too realize them i worked very hard in very high salary country Switzerland.This allowed me to get early retirement and come to the Philippines with 54 years old with saved money. ( Now I'm 78 years old and marriet 33 years already with a Philippina ) Go back to Germany allow your beautiful kids to get a proper education.And You make vacations from time to time in the Philippines. Maybe You'll find a nice German guy who understands your dreams and who knows maybe.. Your pretty enough and very likebel to find Mister right. But priority should be your kids! Have a nice time in the Philippines and get the tickets back to Germany .( There you still get suport right?) Byebye you beautiful Latvian beauty Heiner Jean Hauser
hi. try to search online. there are schools now here in the Philippines that offers online classes. look for one nearest your place in samal or davao city. then hire english and math tutor if you can still afford (online or homebased). you can also search for private schools in samal. i think are some.
No, it's a bad decision. Germany is failing completely and the education system here is already sub par and about on level with some sub-saharan countries.
You're doing good...hope kids can study hard...it will be hard, but you will have the freedom to live a beautiful life in the Philippines....with God, all things are possible 😊❤
You may consider living in Lipa City, known for being little Baguio. De La Salle University is there. If you want island life, Puerto Galera is near. It is a town on the Philippine island of Mindoro.🎉 Cavite or Tagaytay is one hour drive from Lipa City.
Philippine is one of the large contributor of nurses aboard and some of them are product of Philippine public schools, that include me. It's a matter of dedication, perseverance on your study to become who you want to be.
@MsJelena yes language barrier is one of the hindrance, it's a matter of time before you learn the dialect. Your kids is still young they can easily adapt to the local children they are smart as you. Your a polyglot how many language you can speak. Wish you the best and happiness in life. 😍
Online study is also okey my grandaughter study online for 3years during pandemic and if you want in private school in cavite it is good also because they use english language you can afford the tuition and othet expenses coz it is affordable you can continue vlogging there are so many beautiful places in luzon that you can visit and make travel vlog we will support your channel by watching your vlogs and no skipping ads
If you're considering to give your kids the best quality education Germany is considered one of the best. There was a survey saying they're the best but if you're looking to have a more affordable one yet quality at the same time, we have here in the Philippines a lot of private schools. You might want to consider as well our public schools that accept foreigners and offer an international standards of education. There are also online classes. You should be the one to decide. As they say mothers know best for their children.😂😂😂😂
No, Germany is not considered to be one of the best anymore. It used to be until about the early Nineties. Education here is meanwhile the lowest ever in about 300 years of organised public school system in Germany. That's by official statistic, not just hearsay. According to that we are on the level with some subsaharan countries.
Nice a day and im happy to come back you again there in SAMAL, For your kids i know they enter the school so dont worry about this, TAKE CARE YOURSELF FOR YOUR KIDS GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS
Sadly, there is no Brent school in Mindanao. Besides, they are here on a budget. Brent School is one of the most expensive private high school in the Philippines.
My children and I have homeschooled for 4 years since the pandemic and it has really been an incredible experience. They go out in the afternoons when the other children get home from school and play. An element of homeschooling is the freedom and flexibility as well as letting go of the traditional ways public school has taught us to learn and grow. Think of all the ways your kids are already learning new being in a new country. Homeschooling is a perspective shift as well. Seeing the way kids learn and grow daily… example learning math and science while cooking. Learning geography and world studies while traveling around the Philippines. You’re an amazing mother. You’re doing incredible things showing your children dreams are possible and sometimes it takes a moment for it all to settle in. Patience’s, grace with yourself and each other. This is all a whole new experience. Momma to momma sending you a big hug.
There's a lot of International Online home schilling class for Foreign Students in the Philippines and outside they can do a lot of kids activities for their social development hope you find new happiness in Island life ❤
If you want to stay on Mindanao but have no problem moving, there is Liceo de Cagayan High School in Cagayan de Oro City, which even has german lessons certified by Germany. Otherwise there's only German European School in Manila. But good options are international schools all around the Philippines, for example in Cebu or also Dauin Dumaguete that I know in the South of Philippines that I could recommend. They will have perfect preconditions to pursue any education and job they want later. Cebu and Dauin are both NOT in the big city (Cebu it's in the mountains, Dauin is a small little town near Dumaguete with lots of foreigners including Russians, like Alex Kosh or a Filipino russian couple, the Stepanovs with kids who are also vloggers but I forget the channel name), it would be easy to settle and still live in nature.
In Dauin is "One International School Philippines" which is a private school with british curriculum, in a popular area for expats.. in Cebu is "Cebu International School" in Pit-Os, a Cebu Barangay very close to nature, so you can have province life with high standards in education. The Cagayan de Oro example is a more standard, not international school, but it has german classes, which could be helpful. For a full-flegded german education leading to both "Abitur" and international degree, there is only GESM / Eurocampus, in Paranaque Manila, where both the german school and the french school is located.. It is a top-tier school - but it is sadly only in Metro Manila, a bith south of the Airport.
I also would like to do a proposal: As you are deeply involved in this topic, how about visiting these schools and inform yourself about what they offer - and then put it online on your vlog. Because mostly people watching certain vlogs are people who can identify with yourself. So there will be a good percentage of families with kids who have the same problem / thoughts.. You could get information yourself but also for all others who have those questions ;)
You need to put them on a school for international students so they can blend. Public or private it doesn't matter. You can also applied for a private tutor for certain subject, math or language.
God is the best planner. Plan, try your best and full trust to God Almighty Who has controlled of everything in this world then y’all be ok. God willing.
For now As your kid its ok if its not a reputable school as long as theyre doing good. Whats important is to pick the right school when they reach College no matter province.
There are so many islands here in Luzon also. You can visit pangasinan hundred islands, la union beaches, white sand in ilocos norte pagudpud ang many more..
Face to face classes are better than online school, as a former teacher for me integrating in the Filipino culture are much better when you get to school here in our country
Jelena, there are many beautiful beaches in Cavite, and very close to Batangas province with nice beaches also, including Tagaytay City, which is part of the Cavite province.
Hi Jelena, online schooling is good option for the kids and they can learn English language as well at the same time. Online schooling is good for them before they go to enrol in private school there in Philippines. I'm pretty sure you can afford to pay in private school now that your youtube channel is in progress.
All students that will transfer schools to another country , they will go down one level of schooling unless they are evaluated by the schools their level of knowledge.. admissions exams are given.. different countries, different schools have different curriculums thats why schools give evaluations to the incoming students . Most important is they should learn english because that is the international language..advantage of philippines is that english is the second language and people speak english even from kindergaten. Other subjects follow..that is if you really want to stay in philippines with you children. Even if they study in germany their whole life and they dont speak english , if it happens that they want to go abroad still they will struggle… my opinion only
hi jelena. we live in penaplata and our kids go to little zion private school in babak. i see each morning bao bao from kaputian bao bao driver association brining kids. you might want to check it. coming from penaplata go right after fusion gas station. after about 1km on the left. good luck
A good option for the kisd study in my opinion are either home school or enroll them at an enternarional school in that way maybe the educationsl lever that you expect will be satisfied.
You can enroll them in a good school. If they have the ability like science school. There are good schools whether private or public. Language barrier is just temporary, they speaks English and later they will also learn the local tongue, Filipino Tagalog and Bisaya.
My twin brother lives in Davao. He had his son (young adult) spent this Summer there with him and he had a lot of fun and lots of new friends. My brother made him return to the US to continue his college studies.
You can find a good schools here in davao city like catholic school ask them how much cost a year. and find a good rental houses so that you are safe and also car even second hand.
It’s defend on you here in Metro Manila many Private exclusive schools here Advance knowlege and teaching like La Salle Greenhills , Ateneo St Paul and Domuschola an International school for gradeschool and secondary here in Pasig city
Should you choose to leave Samal Island for Emma's & Dominic's education, some of the better schools in Manila are Ateneo de Manila, De La Salle Greenhills, and my alma mater University of Santo Tomas.
There are schools in the Philippines to which English is the language being used in teaching. International School that is what we call it. It is a little expensive though.
It would be best to home school them then get someone to come and help rhem with maths once or twice a week a college girl who speaks English well it might only cost as little as a 100 pesos a hour it will help the children and the college student ❤
They can still study here, even they are late because the school year started already, Deped Schools are still allowed to accept students even in the second grading
Rent an apartment in Cavite during the school year and when the school ends return pabalik sa Samal Island for the summer. Also get someone to rent out your apartment. From there your making pera
I don't want to live 9 months in Cavite.. after my island life I would not be happy I think... If it would be Siargao it would be other thing. I don't know yet what we will do but it should be good for 3 of us..
@@MsJelena You should rent that small building right beside the beach inside the compound where the 8 Miles From Home house is also located. Their daughter Story is also home school for a few years now, and her parents seem to be very happy with the results.
Question so what i undertand here is you like to live in Samal isaland and not in Cavite where you have friends to help your kids get into prviate school? isnt it they own the private school as well? Just an advice school already statted not too late to enroll them in cavite you can still go to samal island for fun during school breaks right?or maybe just go back to germany and put the children back to school.but at the same time how about ur daily vlogs what will be your content i think if you go to cavite ull have more interesting content.youbhave to weigh everything and put all in perspective think about the children’s education.
Thanks!
Thank you so much 🤗❤️🫰
@@MsJelena Privet Jelena! Just one advice from your German subscriber from Berlin.
German education system will be crumbling together with the already declining economy and security as well. Even there in BW countryside. It will not get any better but definitely worse by the day.
Rent your apartment. there are plenty of management companies available for that matter.
Your ex-husband can prepare your flat for that matter and remove your personal belongings.
You don't make much money but even a few hundred a month are enough for sustaining life in the PI.
I plan to do the same with my place in Berlin.
Additionally your YT income should be plenty enough to provide you the amount of money you need for your life on Samal.
Educate your children online (home schooling) in Russian and get a tutor for additional English lessons if necessary.
And after one year you can evaluate if that is working out for you and perhaps until then you make enough money to afford the fees for a nice private school in Davao (1500 $ a year).
Happy mom, happy children. Which is enough not even to consider to go back to Germany. Not to mention that Russian online education is better than public school education in Germany.
Last advice: Find another steady income stream. I mentioned you that before. Look into algo trading. It's fairly easy to do. Confusing and a steep learning curve at the beginning but then low maintenance once it's set up and running.
I do that already.
And will be moving to Davao either next year or the year after.
I'm only keep staying in Germany for the sake of my old parents.
sana all po 😊

Instead their father could come on over to the Philippines as he once did (for vacation).
That with the father doesn't work as supposed anymore. When you watch all the videos of her you'll see it.
Plus, Germany and the collective West are crumbling and will end up in a few years being type of unruling forth world countries with no culture, security, freedom and functioning economy, education and healthcare.
It's already obvious.
There so many good school in davao ms JC. God bless you and your kids.
Sent them to University of the Philippines! The one and only! 😘
Hi Jelena, you look more blooming today but honest, you always are. Since you have already decided for an "online study" for your kids, see what happens after a year. You can then evaluate if they are learning, if it's worth a way to school them or better be in a school. By that time also maybe you will have the means to send them to an international school.and or be guided on where they should really study. Wish you the best for the 3 of you. God bless.❤
Dear Jelena, we know your situation and pray for you and your kids 🙏🏼 You do a really great job on UA-cam. We hope it is soon enough to afford the privat school you want 🙏🏼 Greetings Susanne & Ariel
In the Philippines Catholic school is good however it just expensive but they will take good care of them especially they are foreign. They will love them. Online schooling is good.
You are truly in a very difficult situation. Education is very important most especially in a very young age. If only both kids are proficient in English , it will not be a problem whether they go to a public or private school.
My honest opinion is better to go back to Germany for the meantime to continue your children’s education so that they will not miss out the grade level they should be in right now. Then enroll them in English classes so by next school year they can study already in the Philippines.
It will be an advantage to your children that they can be multilingual- Russian, German, English and hopefully, they will,learn speak Tagalog too.
Sacrifice just one year for the education of your children.
But of course , whatever your decision, we will still support and love you. It’s not easy to be a single parent. And you are blessed that you have understanding and Loving children.
God Bless All of you🙏❤️❤️❤️
That what I did last year.. Sacrificed a year... Just sitted in Germany that they can study. 🤦♀️😢
Both kids are proficient in Russian and Russia has the far superior education next to China and Japan in the world.
German education system is already declining heavily and produces nothing anyone would call a decent education anymore.
Home schooling in Russian is perfect. And the kids can learn nicely at home and learn Russian, English and Bisaya at the same time.
They probably will even remember some German after the years to come. But it's not even necessary. Since they are speaking Russian as their home language (and are therefore basically Russians) they could even go to Russia some day. The only ark of European high culture left there.
OPTION IS ONLINE STUDY JELENA
It's hard but it's you to decide what is best for your children.. like you said it's their future.. so you have to do what is good for them. Pray asking God for guidance 🙏
🤔❤️
what ever it is we're here to support you. .
Please we help her (Jelena) for not skipping ads 😊
You can research for Angelicum College. They have a home study program which is perfect for kids who cannot attend school physically. The good thing is they also have a chance to go to school from time to time so they can mingle with their classmates in person. The school is also non-graded and self-paced. It's in Quezon City.
I totally agree and support your suggestion and plan for the education of your kids while they are in the Philippines. Yes, try the online learning (education/schooling) for now at least they will be at par with the standard of education in Europe (Germany & Russia) I honestly feel it can work the only downside that I see of this system is that Emma and Dominic may get bored on the long run cause online -study will be no social interaction with other classmates. (Correct me if I`m wrong) But you mentioned, that during the pandemic that is what`s being done to educate continuously children. This is a very good alternative for your kids Jelena. I`m supporting you on this idea. Go,go,go!... 🙂
Yeah during pandemic all kids was at home schooling but that was very very hard for all of us... maybe online will be better.. will see.. thank you!!
@@MsJelena, the kids must be exposed to schooling/learning inside the classroom with the interaction of other learners as this is important in their age to develop all the skills needed in learning which cannot be acquired through online studies.
@@gloriaquimpo9726 They can acquire those skills after (home)school. Online school nowadays is proven to be adequate to usual teaching in average schools.
I agree nonetheless that a good private school might be better. There are plenty available in the PI and Davao proper. Perhaps even on Samal.
Also very affordable ones (about the price for a flight ticket from Germany to PI). Plus the costs of living in the PI are about a fifth to a tenths compared with Germany.
That's good back to school, education are good for everyone ❤😊👍☺️.
Just do online school it’s flexible to your time… give them extra lesson for personal tutorial native dialect…keep them hydrated… drink a lot of water.
You must mean "hydrated"
Home School is your best option. Just hire a tutor to come to your place.
Try not to delay the studies for your kids, that will just put them in a disadvantage.
this one is a good option...
😊😊😊
I don't buy that home school also because children needs socialization, they need to be exposed and play with other children too. Otherwise they won't achieve their developmental stages, that will affect them when they grow older.
I think online schooling is good for older kids but since Emma and Dominic are still very young, they need to interact with other kids in the same age group. Since Germany has free schooling and has the best schools, and they speak the language already, it would be best for them to get their education there. Also, their dad will be closer. They can always visit the Philippines during school breaks.
Also heard about the kids of Max that got bullied in Samal so they left and moved to Bali. Hope your kids don’t get bullied in Samal.
Just my thoughts, but I am sure you have thought hard about this already and know what is best for all of you.
Take care always and God bless. 🥰
Unfortunately Germany doesn't have good schools anymore. The whole education system produces millions of indoctrinated children with no knowledge whatsoever. Millions can't even write and read. That's official statistic, not just hearsay. And it only will get worse. It's really horrible. They don't even have enough teachers anymore to maintain any scheduled lessons. So, for instance they nowadays combine maths, physics and chemistry lessons into one. And only one lesson per week.
I never ever would send my kids to any school in the collective West. Especially not in the US, UK, Germany.
For Jelenas kids homeschooling in Russian language is perfect. Combined with English lessons and some Bisaya lessons.
After school (at home) they still have enough time to run around and meet other children in the neighbourhood.
Speaking as a mother, you could not prioritize the kids and you at the same time, once you have children your priority change. Good basic education will mold their future. Our country has good private & international school, unfortunately they are expensive. I've been living in the US for most of my life and few years in Switzerland. I know how high the standard of their educational system. It will be the. kids advantage if they go school in Europe, they'll be closer to their father. Please make sure the kids learn English as their 2nd language, it will be their advantage. Good luck on your kids online schooling.
Children should have happy mother for good happy life. Many years while I was not happy and sacrifice for them staying in Germany. Kids feel everything and they are constantly sick and behave terrible while mom is depressed and feel bad. Took me years to understand but my well being is the same priority as their education.
@AIDAMORRIS, rightly said
There are many good private schools.
If there is a private school in Samal maybe you can check if it is possible for your kids to study there. Or online or home study is more flexible and all three of you will be happy!
I remember when I was elementary school, teachers would speak Tagalog or English. I don't know anymore today. I suggest go to school talk to a principal or a school counselor. Find out how they teach the kids in school. Private school is also another options. Try it.
It is much better if you take them first to tutorial lessons for English. They also have to learn tagalog because it is the Philippine mother tongue and major transactions are spokrn in both English and tagalog.
But take English lessons first, everything will follow.
Home schooling is OK because lots of people are doing it but you really need to be on top of it.
Hi Jelena, It's about time to give up your dreams about tropical island live . I had the same dream s ,but too realize them i worked very hard in very high salary country Switzerland.This allowed me to get early retirement and come to the Philippines with 54 years old with saved money. ( Now I'm 78 years old and marriet 33 years already with a Philippina ) Go back to Germany allow your beautiful kids to get a proper education.And You make vacations from time to time in the Philippines.
Maybe You'll find a nice German guy who understands your dreams and who knows maybe..
Your pretty enough and very likebel to find Mister right. But priority should be your kids!
Have a nice time in the Philippines and get the tickets back to Germany .( There you still get suport right?)
Byebye you beautiful Latvian beauty
Heiner Jean Hauser
hi. try to search online. there are schools now here in the Philippines that offers online classes. look for one nearest your place in samal or davao city. then hire english and math tutor if you can still afford (online or homebased). you can also search for private schools in samal. i think are some.
Welcome back home guys ❤
Yeah I agree.its a good decision in Germany..for education of your kids much better.for my opinion also
No, it's a bad decision. Germany is failing completely and the education system here is already sub par and about on level with some sub-saharan countries.
Good luck kids ❤ thanks Jelena
Educ for ur kids shld be priority
The best solution is Online schools.
I think online is best for em right now and with that I think you guys will have more family time together❤️
You're doing good...hope kids can study hard...it will be hard, but you will have the freedom to live a beautiful life in the Philippines....with God, all things are possible 😊❤
You may consider living in Lipa City, known for being little Baguio. De La Salle University is there. If you want island life, Puerto Galera is near. It is a town on the Philippine island of Mindoro.🎉 Cavite or Tagaytay is one hour drive from Lipa City.
You must sacrificecyour Philippines dreams for the education ofcyour kids. Kids educais more important than beach , travel etcc
Philippine is one of the large contributor of nurses aboard and some of them are product of Philippine public schools, that include me. It's a matter of dedication, perseverance on your study to become who you want to be.
I don't say public school is bad, is bad for my kids and bring 0 coz they don't understand local language
@MsJelena yes language barrier is one of the hindrance, it's a matter of time before you learn the dialect. Your kids is still young they can easily adapt to the local children they are smart as you. Your a polyglot how many language you can speak. Wish you the best and happiness in life. 😍
Online study is also okey my grandaughter study online for 3years during pandemic and if you want in private school in cavite it is good also because they use english language you can afford the tuition and othet expenses coz it is affordable you can continue vlogging there are so many beautiful places in luzon that you can visit and make travel vlog we will support your channel by watching your vlogs and no skipping ads
If you're considering to give your kids the best quality education Germany is considered one of the best. There was a survey saying they're the best but if you're looking to have a more affordable one yet quality at the same time, we have here in the Philippines a lot of private schools. You might want to consider as well our public schools that accept foreigners and offer an international standards of education. There are also online classes. You should be the one to decide. As they say mothers know best for their children.😂😂😂😂
No, Germany is not considered to be one of the best anymore. It used to be until about the early Nineties.
Education here is meanwhile the lowest ever in about 300 years of organised public school system in Germany. That's by official statistic, not just hearsay.
According to that we are on the level with some subsaharan countries.
Miss you Jelena & kids
Goodluck to you and your kids❤
Much love,
Mark
Nice a day and im happy to come back you again there in SAMAL, For your kids i know they enter the school so dont worry about this, TAKE CARE YOURSELF FOR YOUR KIDS GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS
On line classes is very practical for your kids.
Brent international is the best for your children
Sadly, there is no Brent school in Mindanao. Besides, they are here on a budget. Brent School is one of the most expensive private high school in the Philippines.
@@JABM-AU..how expensive is expensive ? In Ateño de Davao it's $1600 a year for student.
@@JABM-AU international school in Manila is expensive, about $17,000 a year
My children and I have homeschooled for 4 years since the pandemic and it has really been an incredible experience. They go out in the afternoons when the other children get home from school and play. An element of homeschooling is the freedom and flexibility as well as letting go of the traditional ways public school has taught us to learn and grow. Think of all the ways your kids are already learning new being in a new country. Homeschooling is a perspective shift as well. Seeing the way kids learn and grow daily… example learning math and science while cooking. Learning geography and world studies while traveling around the Philippines. You’re an amazing mother. You’re doing incredible things showing your children dreams are possible and sometimes it takes a moment for it all to settle in. Patience’s, grace with yourself and each other. This is all a whole new experience. Momma to momma sending you a big hug.
Thank u for sharing your experience 🙏♥️
online is good choice but you must have a room were distraction is far i hope it will work🤞
There's a lot of International Online home schilling class for Foreign Students in the Philippines and outside they can do a lot of kids activities for their social development hope you find new happiness in Island life ❤
Hi and hello Dominic jelena and Emma..pls take care always..may God Love and blessed you 🙏🙏
If you want to stay on Mindanao but have no problem moving, there is Liceo de Cagayan High School in Cagayan de Oro City, which even has german lessons certified by Germany.
Otherwise there's only German European School in Manila.
But good options are international schools all around the Philippines, for example in Cebu or also Dauin Dumaguete that I know in the South of Philippines that I could recommend.
They will have perfect preconditions to pursue any education and job they want later.
Cebu and Dauin are both NOT in the big city (Cebu it's in the mountains, Dauin is a small little town near Dumaguete with lots of foreigners including Russians, like Alex Kosh or a Filipino russian couple, the Stepanovs with kids who are also vloggers but I forget the channel name), it would be easy to settle and still live in nature.
In Dauin is "One International School Philippines" which is a private school with british curriculum, in a popular area for expats..
in Cebu is "Cebu International School" in Pit-Os, a Cebu Barangay very close to nature, so you can have province life with high standards in education.
The Cagayan de Oro example is a more standard, not international school, but it has german classes, which could be helpful.
For a full-flegded german education leading to both "Abitur" and international degree, there is only GESM / Eurocampus, in Paranaque Manila, where both the german school and the french school is located.. It is a top-tier school - but it is sadly only in Metro Manila, a bith south of the Airport.
I also would like to do a proposal: As you are deeply involved in this topic, how about visiting these schools and inform yourself about what they offer - and then put it online on your vlog. Because mostly people watching certain vlogs are people who can identify with yourself. So there will be a good percentage of families with kids who have the same problem / thoughts.. You could get information yourself but also for all others who have those questions ;)
You need to online class them or tutor them one by one so that they can focus to learn more❤❤❤ specialy the tagalog nglish
You need to put them on a school for international students so they can blend. Public or private it doesn't matter. You can also applied for a private tutor for certain subject, math or language.
God is the best planner. Plan, try your best and full trust to God Almighty Who has controlled of everything in this world then y’all be ok. God willing.
For now As your kid its ok if its not a reputable school as long as theyre doing good. Whats important is to pick the right school when they reach College no matter province.
You can enroll them in Catholic or private school they are cheaper than international school and high standard of learning as well.
Finally someone with the right advice. Thanks!
You can check with andrei because lizas kids will be studying online while they are staying in samal island
There are so many islands here in Luzon also. You can visit pangasinan hundred islands, la union beaches, white sand in ilocos norte pagudpud ang many more..
I suggest school in Cavite would be better for your children
Salamat po Jelena para sa answering ang akin tanong
Don't lose hope jelena lot's of international school jn the Philippines
You can try online schooling most bloggers who travel with their children are homeschooled
You have enroll your kids either online of face to face, coz’ education is very important.❤
No need to go to cavite city you can do online studying for your kids.
Face to face classes are better than online school, as a former teacher for me integrating in the Filipino culture are much better when you get to school here in our country
There are best Elementary Schools ( National and International) in the Philippines, but there is a big BUT, .... you have to leave Samal Island. 😅
Some foreigners who lived in the Philippines were usually homeschool or online
Best opition is online study.
Jelena, there are many beautiful beaches in Cavite, and very close to Batangas province with nice beaches also, including Tagaytay City, which is part of the Cavite province.
Hi Jelena, online schooling is good option for the kids and they can learn English language as well at the same time. Online schooling is good for them before they go to enrol in private school there in Philippines. I'm pretty sure you can afford to pay in private school now that your youtube channel is in progress.
All students that will transfer schools to another country , they will go down one level of schooling unless they are evaluated by the schools their level of knowledge.. admissions exams are given..
different countries, different schools have different curriculums thats why schools give evaluations to the incoming students .
Most important is they should learn english because that is the international language..advantage of philippines is that english is the second language and people speak english even from kindergaten. Other subjects follow..that is if you really want to stay in philippines with you children.
Even if they study in germany their whole life and they dont speak english , if it happens that they want to go abroad still they will struggle… my opinion only
You can enroll them in alAteneo de Davao in elementary
Online schooling is the best option. In US , it is very common, from elementary to college.
hi jelena. we live in penaplata and our kids go to little zion private school in babak. i see each morning bao bao from kaputian bao bao driver association brining kids. you might want to check it. coming from penaplata go right after fusion gas station. after about 1km on the left. good luck
You can do home schooling for them
They will learn fast madam
Try province of palawan for sure you love's the island and school for your kids
Sounds to me it's a priority, your needs 1st or the kids school 1st. Have to choose one the other, not unless money can solve both.
We are both priority!
look for international schools if they have one around your area
Good morning. Thank u for sharing. God bless
A good option for the kisd study in my opinion are either home school or enroll them at an enternarional school in that way maybe the educationsl lever that you expect will be satisfied.
More power! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Try Cebu International Academy...
You can enroll them in a good school. If they have the ability like science school. There are good schools whether private or public. Language barrier is just temporary, they speaks English and later they will also learn the local tongue, Filipino Tagalog and Bisaya.
My twin brother lives in Davao. He had his son (young adult) spent this Summer there with him and he had a lot of fun and lots of new friends. My brother made him return to the US to continue his college studies.
How long is vacation in USA? 3 months? In Germany only 6 weeks 😢
@@MsJelenaSummer vacation is 3 months
You can find a good schools here in davao city like catholic school ask them how much cost a year. and find a good rental houses so that you are safe and also car even second hand.
It’s defend on you here in Metro Manila many Private exclusive schools here Advance knowlege and teaching like La Salle Greenhills , Ateneo St Paul and Domuschola an International school for gradeschool and secondary here in Pasig city
Should you choose to leave Samal Island for Emma's & Dominic's education, some of the better schools in Manila are Ateneo de Manila, De La Salle Greenhills, and my alma mater University of Santo Tomas.
There are schools in the Philippines to which English is the language being used in teaching. International School that is what we call it. It is a little expensive though.
Hello Ms beautiful jelena. Watching from toronto canada
It would be best to home school them then get someone to come and help rhem with maths once or twice a week a college girl who speaks English well it might only cost as little as a 100 pesos a hour it will help the children and the college student ❤
They can still study here, even they are late because the school year started already, Deped Schools are still allowed to accept students even in the second grading
Rent an apartment in Cavite during the school year and when the school ends return pabalik sa Samal Island for the summer. Also get someone to rent out your apartment. From there your making pera
I don't want to live 9 months in Cavite.. after my island life I would not be happy I think... If it would be Siargao it would be other thing. I don't know yet what we will do but it should be good for 3 of us..
@@MsJelena You should rent that small building right beside the beach inside the compound where the 8 Miles From Home house is also located. Their daughter Story is also home school for a few years now, and her parents seem to be very happy with the results.
@@MsJelenaare you thinking of ur own happiness or ur children's education? You have to choose one if you could not do both?
@eldagasataya8907 children to be happy need happy mom
Question so what i undertand here is you like to live in Samal isaland and not in Cavite where you have friends to help your kids get into prviate school? isnt it they own the private school as well? Just an advice school already statted not too late to enroll them in cavite you can still go to samal island for fun during school breaks right?or maybe just go back to germany and put the children back to school.but at the same time how about ur daily vlogs what will be your content i think if you go to cavite ull have more interesting content.youbhave to weigh everything and put all in perspective think about the children’s education.
