Latinx History Month (9/15-10/15) is in full swing and Central American Week (10/3-10/9) is just around the corner. This year, our team wanted to dedicate a workshop to the histories and cultures of various Central American communities.

Dear Teachers.

You are the pulse of our schools, our communities, and our democracy....

Because of your hope and vision, we've all had a foretaste of possibility---for ourselves and our communities.

Thank you for all that you do and choose to become.

Sincerely,
Center X

This October, we celebrate 30 years of commemorating Filipino American History!

Center X: What is your biggest takeaway so far?

Ms. Judd: 'The sense of community [here] is strong.'

Success isn't a one-person act.

As a teacher, finding your niche, your flow, is a joyful art-- a lifelong masterpiece you create with others.

Fellow educators, what does it mean to be successful in your career?

For TEP Novice, Ms. Suzette Martinez, 'Genuine commitment' is often the marker of the endless possibilities one can bring to life.

Indeed, the future is unlimited for our new novices at TEP!

We begin with gratitude for safe spaces -- where we feel most empowered and seen.

We then dream bigger, creating safe spaces for our students to experience the same.

This is what, TEP Novice, Ms. Priscilla Martinez, commits herself to.

And yes, we're so excited and proud!

When we asked @tepuclacx novice, Ms. Eui Sun Cho, how she felt during orientation last week, she confidently said: “Empowered”.

Empowered teachers, empower others.

Let's follow Ms. Cho and empower others today by reminding them of their light, strengths and gifts.

Dreams do come true at UCLA TEP:

“I’ve already had the dream of coming here and it’s full circle making that 8-year old me’s dream come true.”

We’re really excited to have you Mr. Guevara, and know you’ll definitely help your students dreams come true!

Initially a Sociology major, Ms. Jerrika switched to Education the first opportunity she got as a UCLA undergrad! See what she has to say about her experience as a UCLA TEP Novice so far:“I’m pumped! The staff are so genuine and care about who you are as a person.”

@tepuclacx

Teachers and Educators, you're work matters.

With TEP orientation next week, we can't help think about our alumni making a difference!

How will you change the world?

During troubling times, literature has often been a vehicle for resistance.
