New Teacher - Mrs. Rose Manipor


"Know your passion!" uttered the newest member of the MDPS faculty, Mrs. Mary Rose Manipor, Technology and Living Economics (TLE) teacher.
Mrs. Manipor took up BS Food Technology at Marikina Institute of Science and Technology and BS Industrial Education, major in Home Economics at Technological Institute of the Philippines. She initially wanted to become a nurse but ended in a different field instead.
Mrs. Manipor has been in the food profession for five years already. She became a food and beverage training service attendant in Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) for one and a half years and a kitchen supervisor at a European restaurant in Ortigas.
She accepted the teaching offer at MDPS because Mrs. Fely Ramos, her mentor and former TLE III teacher, wanted her to take over the job. Plus, her interest lies in teaching.
Presently living with her two children and husband, Mrs. Manipor manages her time between family and career by prioritizing the needs of her family. During her free time, she takes care of her children, manages a canteen business and creates new recipes for her to submit to a food company.
"It was a nice experience dealing with MDPS students because they really enjoyed the activities and they always looked forward to it," she said. When asked on her advice to students who are interested in food management, she said "Decide on the career you truly want. If you have the passion, then pursue it." By Julliane Love F. De Jesus, IV-Misericordia
