Hello Everyone!
It has been several
months since I have been the International Teaching Assistant Interest
Section (ITAIS) chair, but I’m grateful for this opportunity to thank
each one of you for your support through the past year. It was not an
easy year as an interest section, but catching up with many of you at
TESOL in March made me even more convinced of the value and strength of
our group. It was a wonderful opportunity to come together to share
ideas, network, and build new connections!
Our annual business meeting was held on Thursday, 14 March, and
it was a chance to thank the outgoing leaders and welcome the new
steering committee. I’d especially like to thank our member-at-large,
Ekaterina Arshavskaya, who coordinated our delicious ITAIS dinner,
immediately following the meeting!
Navigating through the past year, I have been especially
grateful for the unfailing support of the ITA-IS Steering Committee:
Stephen Looney, Mo Burke, Maria Mendoza, Stacy Suhadolc, Ekaterina
Arshavskaya, Laura Murphy, and Diane Cotsonas—thank you! I am thrilled
to have Mo Burke take over as chair, and I wish the new steering
committee all the best!
Looking forward to seeing everyone in Denver next year!
Best wishes,
Derina |
