Adult Education

A Message from Your Interest Section Leader, Angela Super

November 15, 2025

Dear Members,

 

I’m honored to introduce myself as the newly elected Adult Education Interest Section Leader for MITESOL. My name is Angela Super, and I am a TESOL specialist with over 25 years of experience teaching multilingual learners in a variety of educational settings and contexts. I’m excited to support our adult education community and help strengthen the resources and connections available to our members.

As we look ahead, I encourage you to check out the MITESOL Messages Board for updates, shared resources, and ongoing discussions relevant to adult education. It’s a great space to stay connected and informed. Also, keep an eye out for a new Adult Education Facebook page (coming soon!), which will offer another way for us to share ideas, opportunities, and community updates.

As always, we welcome participation from teachers, administrators, and anyone dedicated to supporting English Learners across the state.

I look forward to connecting with you throughout the year and supporting the important work you do.

Sincerely,
Angela Super
Adult Education Interest Section Leader, MITESOL
