My mission for Educator in Service is to serve World Language Teachers by providing unique, best-practice professional development geared specifically to their discipline.  Sustained and in-depth staff development is a major contributing factor to improving student achievement.  Ultimately, the investment in staff development pays off in the motivation and success of the students.

My hopes are that the teaching of World Languages will be as rewarding of a career for others as it is for me and that more students will have successful language-learning experiences.  The vision for Educator in Service is that all students will be motivated to learn new languages and study the world’s cultures.  This will lead to more respectful and peaceful communities within the United States and throughout the world.
