LET Top 5 Passer | Cram School Teacher (Taiwan) 🇹🇼

From Failure to Topnotcher🎉

Julie’s journey is a true testament to perseverance and faith.

After graduating, she took the LET—but did not pass on her first attempt. Discouraged, she moved to Taiwan and worked in a factory for four years.

Yet, her passion for teaching never faded.

Years later, an opportunity came—a special LET in Taiwan. She took the leap again.

And this time, she didn’t just pass… she became a Topnotcher.

“Delays are not denials.”

Her Secret to Success:
✔ Consistency in daily review
✔ Answering 150–300 questions daily
✔ Strong discipline and focus
✔ Faith in God and trust in the process

💡Biggest Lesson
Failure is not the end— it can be a redirection to something greater.

🎯Advice to Future LET Takers:
Believe in yourself.
Stay consistent.
Don’t be discouraged by setbacks—your time will come.

🩵A Proud Easternian
CEC helped shape her discipline, perseverance, and strong foundation as an educator.

✨ From factory worker to LET Topnotcher—
a story of resilience, faith, and purpose.

Cebu Eastern College (CEC) strengthened its reputation in the field of technology as its Information Technology students secured the championship title in the Cebu Schools Athletic Foundation, Inc. (CESAFI) Computer Quiz Bowl 2026, held on March 27 at the Cebu Institute of Technology-University (CIT-U) LRAC.

Second-year IT students Marc Jethro Avila and Bryan Solon showcased exceptional coding expertise and technical knowledge, rising above competing institutions in a competition that tested both analytical thinking and programming skills.

The event consisted of two rounds, the Quiz Proper and the Programming Challenge. During the Quiz Proper, the CEC representatives dominated the Easy category, earning Rank 1 with 12 points, and maintained their lead in the Average category with 51 points. In the Difficult category, they secured 71 points, placing Rank 2 and earning a spot in the final round.

Entering the Programming Challenge, the duo demonstrated strong command of coding and problem-solving, ultimately achieving a total score of 286 points. Their consistent performance throughout the competition led them to clinch the championship title.

The victory was made possible through the guidance of their coaches, Mr. Charlie Maquilan and Mr. Arnel Villanueva Jr., whose mentorship played a vital role in honing the team’s skills. The team also received full support from their dean, Prof. Juvelyn G. Sato, who continues to promote excellence in the field of information technology.

Reflecting on the moment, Mr. Charlie Maquilan shared, “Seeing them hold their certificates and medals with full smiling faces really hits home. As a coach, there is no better feeling than watching your students realize they can be the absolute best.”

The achievement not only highlights the capability of CEC’s IT students in competitive programming but also reinforces the institution’s commitment to developing future-ready professionals equipped with critical thinking and advanced technical skills in an increasingly digital world.
