Patricia's Story: A Journey of Biliteracy and Collaboration with SEAL

As we continue to celebrate SEAL’s five-year anniversary as a nonprofit and more than 15 years supporting multilingual learners, we look back on moments that helped shape our journey
In this special reflection, SEAL Senior Manager - Knowledge Hub, Patricia Montes, shares her memories from a transformative seven-day professional learning institute trip in 2018 with her SEAL colleagues. During this trip, they immersed themselves in valuable literacy strategies aimed at supporting young children. Patricia’s reflections highlight the meaningful school visits, engagements with master educators, and the innovative strategies that have since become part of SEAL’s approach today.
