Audience: Classroom Teachers
We go beyond traditional language instruction to offer a holistic and culturally responsive approach. Our training, which includes OCDE Project GLAD®, is designed to help educators see language acquisition through a lens of equity and inclusion, ensuring every student's linguistic background is celebrated and leveraged.
Audience: Spanish-speaking bilingual, Dual Language, and World Language Teachers
This is a rare and powerful opportunity for Spanish-speaking educators to deepen their mastery of the language itself. We are not teaching you how to teach in Spanish, but rather providing a professional enrichment experience that elevates your own linguistic prowess to benefit your students.
Audience: School and District Leadership
This is more than a professional network; it's a strategic partnership for educational leaders. We offer a direct line to expert mentors and a curated community of top-tier peers, all dedicated to the long-term sustainability and excellence of bilingual and immersion programs.
