Forming the theme "Motivation Mirroring: A Guide to Advising Student Organizations", Miss Tan lectured on Foundations of Good Organizations, Assessment of Advising Effectiveness, Advising Styles and Types of Problems which student organizations usually encounter. "Be aware of the task problems but do not be afraid of failures. Instead, learn to get up together with your members," Ms. Tan advised the moderator.

"Nagandahan ako sa discussion about motivating student leaders. They will be more interested in club works and activities if we will be giving them rewards and incentives," shared Mrs. Evangeline Banta, a six-year moderator of Culinary Enthusiasts' Organization (CEO), a circle of cooking experts.

"Take what you can apply," she concluded. Miss Tan encouraged all the club moderators to start the school year with their clubs by choosing a core value which the club believes in espouse and live for.
