Help make a dream possible! My colleague, Ma’am Glenda from Leyte Normal University in the Philippines, and I are thrilled that our proposal to present at TESOL 2026 in Salt Lake City was accepted. We collaborated to create a presentation titled “Utilizing the Linguistic Landscape to Improve Literacy Skills” which we hope to present this coming March at the TESOL International Conference.

Glenda is a dedicated educator who advised, guided, and befriended me during my 10 months at LNU as an English Language Fellow. She provides that same warmth and guidance to all her students and colleagues.

Unfortunately, funding for international conferences is very limited this year. With your help, we can bring Glenda’s voice — and the perspectives of her students — to a global stage.

Your donation will help cover airfare, registration, and travel expenses so Glenda can share her work and bring new ideas back to her colleagues and classrooms. It will help to extend the benefits of our cultural exchange far beyond the 10 months that I spent at LNU.

Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a real difference. Thank you for supporting teachers who inspire change!
