POSITIVE WORDS ABOUT OUR LAST CONFERENCE

“Thanks very much to both of you for including our organization in the conference. It was great to meet so many committed and creative teachers, and I got a lot out of the sessions I attended, as well as the one I facilitated. I hope we’ll have more chances to collaborate in the future.“

~ Nadia Kalman, Editor & Curriculum Designer Words Without Borders Campus

“What a marvelous conference. I am exceedingly honored to have been the keynoter.“

~ Freddy Hiebert, Literacy Educator, University of Wisconsin

“Congratulations on a terrific conference! The Conference Committee and many, many other folks did an amazing job! Great awards ceremony, excellent speakers, informative workshops, plenty of vendors, a truly helpful and accommodating venue and fun times!”

~ John Harmon‎

“Attending this conference is especially rewarding…My energies are renewed and my ideas are revitalized.  Being somewhat overwhelmed by paperwork … I find attending a professional conference to be extremely important.  Attending workshops on relevant and innovative ways of approaching curriculum is enriching.”

~ Carol Durkin, English Teacher & Educator of Excellence, Monroe-Woodbury High School

“The NYSEC conference is an English teacher’s dream. Being together with so many talented teachers from all over the state is inspiring and motivational. I always leave ready to tackle something new.”

~ Dr. Beth Zirogiannis, Director of English, Reading, and Library, K-12, Oceanside CSD

“Going to my first NYSEC conference was an immersion into the instruction of English. The speakers were engaging, and the vendors were well chosen and helpful. I went back into the classroom inspired, and I hope to attend the conference again.”

~Ani Rosario, 7th Grade English teacher, Dansville Central School District
