Teacher to Teacher (T2T) is the Explorica training and mentorship program for new group leaders. We give you the opportunity to join a vibrant community and connect with teachers from across the country who share your passion for education and belief that travel is an invaluable life experience for all who partake in it.
One of these incredible mentors is Linda Egnatz. She has led many student tours with Explorica as well as a few teachers-only tours through the Illinois Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ICTFL). Linda believes in and advocated strongly for language learning, a theme that emerges in many of her itineraries.
“As I work to improve both my students’ classroom experience as well as their proficiency, I’m willing to change, to innovate, to experiment and most importantly to throw out what’s not working.” –Linda E.
