Most OFWs here in the UAE would have had at least a decade past their lives when they last stepped into a classroom – and the years would just pile up if they’re asked about their elementary years.
As students in the UAE have settled once again to study, TFT Lifestyle TV tests the mettle of different Filipino expats as they try to answer simple, yet mind boggling questions that elementary students can answer.
