Let me convince you to make this a thesis.

School should be a place of safety. A place where students are protected. A place where they can grow. But as the school year starts again, vape smoke still lingers near the gates. Cigarettes still pass hands in secret. And every day, more young lungs get hooked before they even turn sixteen.

This is not just a bad habit. This is a health crisis. And it starts right outside the classroom.

The real problem is not just the presence of tobacco and vape products near schools. It’s the lack of urgency. The broken enforcement. The way we turn a blind eye while the next generation breathes in poison.

If our children’s schools are not safe from addiction, then we’ve failed them. Completely.

Let this be the wake-up call. Let this be your thesis.

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.
