MEET ANA MARIA ROCCA, INCOMING ALC MEMBER A!
I have been serving Argentina TESOL (ARTESOL) since 2001. In the course of the years I worked my way up from member of the board to president of the association, serving in this position from March 2006 to May 2010. I currently serve as ARTESOL vice president. During these years I have also worked on the online publication of ARTESOL Newsletter, then on ARTESOLESP E-journal as member of the editorial board. As a university teacher and researcher, I have been teaching and doing research on ESP at the School of Philosophy and Letters, Universidad de Buenos Aires, for over 20 years and teaching EFL at Programa para Adultos (Special Program for Adults) at the Extension Secretary, Universidad de Buenos Aires. In both positions dealing with biographical diversity has always been one of its main challenges. So completing TESOL Leadership Certificate Program gave me the opportunity of reflecting on matters related to management of diversity, problem solving, and conflict resolution. Serving as member A of the Affiliate Leadership Council, my goal is to commit to the activities the position requires and to work on guiding affiliates to consider their mission and vision as TESOL Affiliates, in this way reaffirming the liaison between TESOL and TESOL Affiliates with a clear focus on service and ability to meet objectives. |
