Featuring students and staff from our most recent newslettersEnriching LEI’s ESL education We have a new LEI team member, Catherine Goodwill, an English as a Second Language (ESL) expert and professor! She will focus on enhancing ESL programming for Club E, working with the Promotoras de Salud on improving their English conversational skills, and aiding in the assessment of our after-school programs. Catherine holds a B.A. degree in Romance Languages (French and Spanish) from Mount Holyoke College and an M.A. in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) from the School for International Training. Catherine comes to LEI with vast experience in the field of ESL, having started her career at WSU in 2006 with the Intensive English Language Institute. Teaching ESL has been her career and passion for the past forty-four years! Thank you, Carmen Rosado! Carmen has been a lifeline supporting our Parent Engagement Navigation Services, inspiring and serving as a role model and mentor to our youth, their parents, and staff. And when the going gets tough she is always available, going above and beyond the call, to help us fill any gaps in our programs with her unconditional support. Special recognition to Carmen Rosado for her over 20 years with the LEI lifting families and students through passion and dedication. She brings a wealth of experience after 30 years of work with WPS, first as a School Adjustment Counselor and later as an Education and Career Advisor. Way to go Anabelle Santiago! One of our LEI Health Ambassadors, Anabelle Santiago, was selected by the Worcester State University Scholarship Committee to receive the Joseph. V. Kane Endowed Scholarship. In Anabelle’s words: “I hope to continue promoting health and well-being through my work as a LEI Health Ambassador. After I graduate, I plan to pursue a Master of Healthcare Administration (MHA) at Boston College. The LEI has helped me greatly to develop skills in numerous areas such as assessments, program planning and evaluation, communication and public relations, project management, and cultural and language competency.”
