Bulletin from the Board

!



President’s Message On behalf of t h e B o a r d o f Directors, it is my sincere pleasure and privilege to welcome you to the inaugural edi;on of our digital bulle;n. Our goal with this publica;on is to keep our members

informed about new developments within Puerto Rico TESOL. The Board of Directors is here to serve your needs as a member. While I have the pleasure of serving as president for 2014, the success of the organiza;on would be impossible without the ac;ve support and par;cipa;on of our Board Members and therefore, I would like to recognize them for their service. Because of the Board's hard work, as well as the support of our sponsors and our membership, PRTESOL IS STILL ALIVE. Many thanks to all of you for helping to make our associa;on the best. Many exci;ng events await us in 2014. We began this year with the first all-‐day Leadership Summit “Strengthening Our Efforts through E ff e c : v e L e a d e r s h i p , T e amwo r k a n d Commitment”, on February 1st at Pon;fical Catholic University of Puerto Rico, Ponce campus. During this summit, the main board and chapter boards convened to evaluate, strategize, and redirect our efforts to beVer serve the English educators in Puerto Rico. The evalua;ons and response from the summit were outstanding and the purpose of the event was achieved. Two board members and I aVended the TESOL Interna:onal Conven:on from March 25 to March 29 in Portland, Oregon. I am proud to say that the three of us presented at this conven;on. Puerto Rico TESOL was well-‐represented.

In April, we had the Western Chapter’s Spelling Bee Contest and its all-‐day conference, and Eastern Chapter’s president Helvia Guzman invited the chapter members to a free brunch in Loiza. In May, the Metro Chapter held its Storytelling Contest, and the Southern Chapter had its all-‐day conference. Our culmina;ng event is the annual Conven;on on November 14-‐15 at the Hilton Ponce Golf and Casino Resort. The theme for the conven;on is “No One LeI Behind”: Integra:ng Mul:cultural Perspec:ves in the English Classroom. In add i;on to these profess iona l development ac;vi;es, we have begun an ini;a;ve to recruit new members called Give Us a Hand Campaign. For addi;onal informa;on regarding these upcoming events and our recruitment c a m p a i g n , v i s i t o u r w e b s i t e www.puertoricotesol.org periodically or look for us on Facebook and TwiVer. I hope you are as excited as I am about 2014, and that you help us con;nue our tradi;on of success. The strength of our organiza;on is premised on the level of involvement by our members. As with all of our technological enhancements, we are not looking to replace human contact but to supplement the personal rela;onships you have with people within our organiza;on. We hope you enjoy this first digital edi;on of the Bulle;n from the Board, and we welcome your comments so that we can deliver the best publica;on possible. With that in mind, I invite you to contact us to share any ideas, thoughts, or feedback to improve our organiza;on. I will make it a point to ensure that you receive a response to communica;ons you send me. You should also feel free to contact any Board Member. We all welcome your ideas and feedback. I look forward to hearing from you – my phone line is always open – or to seeing you at one of our many upcoming events.Very truly yours,Edward TorresPRTESOL President 2014

2014 Leadership Summitby Maureen Orama, Private Elementary School

Representative

The Summit held at Catholic University on Saturday, February 1, 2014, was a wonderful experience. We had never had a mee;ng that included all the elected board members from both the main Board and from the local chapter boards. This type of ac;vity is recent in PRTESOL. When I was on the Board before, over 10 years ago, the new members were a bit lost because we started to work with a number of people that we really

didn't know. This ac;vity gave us the opportunity to learn together and plan together. We started out with a great presenta;on from Col. Efrain Soto. He is not only a PRTESOL member but a great mo;va;onal speaker.

Aler the great presenta;on, we had lunch and it was a good experience. The different Board members started sharing what they wanted for PRTESOL. This was confirmed at our small group mee;ngs. There were three different small groups, presidents, vice presidents and past presidents,

!

!

secretaries and treasurers and finally the representa;ves. All the different representa;ves met with Dr. Naomi Vega and Dr. Myriam Caballero. We had a very fruimul session where we gave and evaluated sugges;ons to get our membership numbers growing. I'm very glad to have par;cipated in the Summit, and I look forward to more mee;ngs with the whole PRTESOL Board. The more we work together the sooner we will get to have the strong organiza;on we all want.

1st PRTESOL Board and Chapter Boards Leadership Summit

“Strengthening Our Efforts through Effec:ve Leadership, Teamwork, and

Commitment”

Jann Marie Guzmán FloresPRTESOL Southern Chapter Vice President

The 1st PRTESOL Board and Chapter Boards Leadership Summit, “Strengthening Our Efforts through Effec;ve Leadership, Teamwork and Commitment,” was held on Saturday, February 1, 2014, at Pon;fical Catholic University of Puerto Rico. The opportunity to aVend this summit was invaluable. I thought this was a great opportunity to get together and share ideas and experiences. I expected to learn more about my role and working together towards a common goal. The main objec;ve of this summit was g e r n g t o g e t h e r a s a professional organiza;on to discuss our roles and responsibili;es, reevaluate our goals, and work on a strategic work plan for this year. The summit began with Quest Speakers, Col. Efrain Soto and MSG. Luis R. Cora. Both speakers did an excellent job explaining about “Strategic-‐Transforma;onal Leadership: Inspiring Teamwork and Commitment.” Then, PRTESOL President 2014, Prof. Edward Torres, gave his presenta;on which included informa;on on the objec;ves of the summit, the annual conven;on, among other things. Members were divided into three groups: (1) Presidents, Vice Presidents, Past Presidents; (2) All Representa;ves; and (3) Secretaries/Membership Sec re ta r i e s /T reasu re r to d i s cus s du;es ,

responsibili;es, and bylaws. Since I am the PRTESOL Southern Chapter Board Vice President, I aVended that group. The du;es of the Vice President is to assist the president, preside mee;ngs when president is absent, prepare programs for conferences, and becomes president when current president’s term is complete. The President’s du;es are to preside all mee;ngs, prepare the work plan, and annual budget. The Immediate Past President is a Liaison Officer for the organiza;on, chairs and makes recommenda;ons as a member of the bylaws commiVee. The vice president eventually fills in all these roles. All three are vo;ng posi;ons. Here is a summary of the bylaws: Membership, which should be paid annually, is open

to all concerned with the teaching of English to speakers of other languages; board mee;ngs should be at least six ;mes a year and all members must aVend; a vacancy may be declared if a vo;ng member has three absences in a year (excused or not) and a mo;on to remove any board member

needs 2/3 vote in favor by the Board of Directors; fily percent of vo;ng members must be present to cons;tute a quorum; elec;ons are held yearly for Vice-‐President and other vacancies; and the annual general mee;ng is held at the Annual Conven;on. Aler the breakout sessions each group reported informa;on received. This summit was what I expected and more. It definitely achieved its purpose of gerng together and strengthening our efforts. I think it was a very produc;ve ac;vity where I learned more about my role and responsibili;es, among other things. It was a great experience and I hope this is not the last ;me a summit like this one is held.

The main objec;ve of this summit was gerng together as a professional organiza;on to discuss our roles and responsibili;es, reevaluate our goals, and work on a strategic work plan for this year.
