Let me convince you to make this a thesis.

Imagine being six years old, sitting in a classroom with blurry vision, aching teeth, or an ear infection. You can’t read the board. You can’t hear your teacher. You feel sick and confused, but you don’t know how to say it. So you just sit there. Silent. Struggling. Falling behind every day. This is real for thousands of Filipino kids.

What’s really wrong? We wait too long to care. We let poverty and poor access to healthcare decide who gets to learn and who doesn’t. This isn’t just about health. This is about justice. Every child deserves to learn, and that starts with being healthy. The DOH’s recent move in Davao is bold, but it’s only a start. We need to study this. Fix it. Scale it. Make it the norm, not the exception.

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.
