The MTCA World

by: Annie Jane Pantoja

        Being part of MTCA family is a great privilege and an opportunity for each of us. Here, I met people from all walks of life. People of different values and attitudes. But whatever are our difference, our aim is to finish and pass all the specialty exams and practical files to reach the standard accuracy, to be familiar with the medical terms especially the drugs and diseases, most of all to finish the course. Hence, the challenge remains --- how to strive in the midst of competition among fellow MT students. To keep on track, we need to struggle a lot learning all the things we need to know in a short term basis. We need also to practice self-study and self discipline. In this endeavor, self discipline is crucial. Also perseverance and courage is a must. This attributes to the success of being an MT.

Medical Transcriptionist

        Despite the difficulties we encounter in our studies, here, we also feel happiness especially when we encounter unfamiliar terms. At least, we are given a privilege to know the meaning of complicated medical terms. Indeed, we are blessed for having medical transcription because we learn new ideas which we can apply in our day to day activities particularly on health preservation.

        Personally, I want to acknowledge all the efforts of the mentors, the admin, the staffs, the medical lecturers and the good Lord for guiding us in one of our journeys. This is great opportunity to be part of this challenging world. May God Bless us and more power to MTC Academy-Albay!
