21. Conclusion Every nation has it’s own various values, and the Philippines is no exception. Even if we were colonized by several colonizers, many values from our ancestors remained essential up to this moment. Values give purpose and direction to the lives of people within the society. It give meaning and significance to their life and to the totality of the society. In the context of education, the negative impacts that are brought by those values can slowly corrected by the teachers in order to preserve those standards and for the benefits of the young ones. Teachers are set to be good exemplars on how to showcase our cultural values.
