RITELL invites you to join us for Dr. Andrea Honigsfeld's Keynote: The Power of Collaboration in Support of Multilingual Learners

Andrea Honigsfeld, Ed.D., is a professor emerita at Molloy University whose work focuses on preparing educators to serve culturally and linguistically diverse learners. Drawing on her experience as an English teacher in Hungary, an ESL teacher in New York City, and a teacher educator, she brings a rich international perspective to multilingual learner education. Her research and professional learning focus on language and literacy development, differentiated instruction, coteaching, and collaboration between ELD/ML specialists and general education teachers. An internationally recognized author and speaker, Andrea connects research with practical strategies that help educators create more equitable and inclusive learning experiences for multilingual learners. Dr. Honigsfeld will deliver the keynote as well as a breakout session based on her latest book Wait, Don't Just Translate.
