We’re so proud of Greta and Broderick who recently presented their original research alongside Professor Hu at the WITESOL Fall Conference!

The WITESOL conference brings together educators and researchers from across the state to share ideas for supporting multilingual learners—and our students made an impressive contribution to those conversations!

Working one-on-one with faculty on research projects gives our students the chance to explore real-world questions, develop professional skills, and join the broader community of educators and scholars!
