Let me convince you to make this a thesis.

At the break of dawn, parents hovered over footbridges, waving with forced smiles as their children disappeared into crowded school gates. Some kids cried. Others clung tightly to their guardians, refusing to let go. On paper, it was just another first week of school. But inside the classrooms, things were far from normal. Schools were slicing classrooms in half with plywood just to fit everyone in. One school in Las Piñas reported over 10,000 students. And still counting.

What’s really wrong? We’ve normalized this chaos. This isn’t about first-day jitters or typical growing pains. It’s about a system bursting at the seams. Kids are learning in divided rooms. Teachers are stretched thin. Safety risks are being addressed only after violence breaks out. This is not education. This is emergency management. And no one is asking the deeper question: how much learning is actually happening?

College Programs:

Get Your Thesis Title — or Keep Getting Rejected

Bestie, let’s stop pretending you’ve “got it covered.”

You’re here because:

  • Your title keeps getting rejected

  • You don’t know the difference between a “topic” and a “research gap”

  • You’re guessing your way through something that decides your graduation

And let’s be real — you’ve already:
❌ Tried making titles from scratch
❌ Watched “How to Write a Thesis Title” TikToks
❌ Copy-pasted topics from other people's thesis (ooops?)

Still stuck? Exactly.

You don’t need more ideas.

You need a system.

That’s what the Thesis Toolkit gives you:

YTB Thesis Title Booster – because you need legit, research-based topics based on current trends — not random ones na “maganda pakinggan.”


Thesis Title Builder – because you keep forgetting na kailangan may survey source or research instrument ka rin, hindi lang title.


Research Gap Finder – because most of your drafts get rejected for one reason: Walang gap.

YOU NEED THIS IF...

  • You're tired of starting over

  • You're afraid to open your adviser’s feedback

  • You want a title, gap, and source na adviser-friendly and academically sound

This isn’t optional.
It’s either you use this toolkit...
or you keep wasting weeks writing titles na walang mapupuntahan.
