Editorial Sample Let Mother Tongue Be Heard “Her voice is world class thus her voice deserve to be heard all over the world.” stated Sarah Geronimo as they recently concluded the successful second season of the Voice Kids which garnered a 34.5 % rating in the television viewership. The show features three coaches that will judge a singing hopeful with only their vocal talent without prejudice to their physical bearing in the so called blind audition rounds. Then the battles, sing-offs and the live shows will follow where a grand winner is determined.

Certainly, the way up takes a lot of talent and determination in order for a voice kids contestant to go home triumphant which can be the same hurdles that the mother tongue had undergone. In its first year of institutionalization, resistance from the parents, teachers and stakeholders sector rises due to the confusion of its content and purpose in the educative process. Different interpretation of the order on MTB implementation brought chaos and arguments to in schools claim to what is right and wrong.

As it may seem like a gray area where we need to grope in the dark. Let us give MTB implementation a chance because according to research, mother tonques are more effective tool of learning thus they should be the media of instruction. It is this push for MTB as language of education which has passed a new challenge to existing configuration in the educational platform.
