Ambrosio R. Villorente

Congratulations! NVC Community


The Entrepreneurial Farmer sincerely wishes happy 65th Annual College Festival and Foundation Day Celebration to the Northwestern Visayan Colleges. This festival will take place on March 1 & 2, 2013.

Anchored on the theme: the “Role of the Academe in the Disaster Preparedness Program”, the celebration addresses its activities to assist the government mitigate the ill effects of disasters. The celebration theme reveals the NVC’s community concern and its academic relevance to the present day goals, problems and its possible solutions. 

The two day annual foundation day celebration will highlight the important contributions in the human resource development of Aklan and other provinces which is the number one factor in community development. 

Indeed, NVC is the paradigm of an ever progressive institution sustaining the test of time for the last six decades and five years of existence.

The Use of Mother Tongue

How useful is your tongue? Without your tongue the world will be miserable for there will be no communication to take place between two persons and among persons. There will be no understanding and peace will be jeopardized. And this is one of the reasons why language is one of the elements of an independent state. 

Moreover, tongue is also used in the cultivation of an eternal and sincere love. It is used in kissing, to aid the lips.

Furthermore, tongue helps a person enjoy the food he eats. It helps a person enjoy the food or drink he takes. 

In the implementation of the K to 12 Basic Education Curriculum, Mother Tongue (MT) is used as the medium of instruction for Grade I classes. In Aklan, the MT is “Akeanon”. DepEd recognizes Akeanon as a distinct language, hence becoming part of the MT Based Multilingual Education.

A group of Akeanon teachers of DepEd has developed an “Akeanon Orthography” to be used as learning and guides in the teaching of Akeanon. This Akeanon  Orthography is validated by Akeanon speakers last Friday, Feb. 22. This will be finalized and contextualized to be held soon in Tagaytay City. 

Congratualtions Dr. Jesse M. Gomez and staff of the Division of Aklan, DepEd for this project.

This will surely improve the Akeanon language, expands its application, develops our culture, and promotes common understanding and peace not only among Akeanons but among Pilipinos. /MP
