A letter to all IATEFL Poland members

Hello,

My name is Marta Bujakowska. I have been a volunteer for IATEFL Poland since 1994. At present I hold the position of Liaison Officer. I am responsible for starting and maintaining good relations with IATEFL Poland partner associations. For the past few years, I have also volunteered for IATEFL where I have served on the Associates’ Committee.

I am excited to connect with you. Over the years, my involvement in various capacities within our IATEFL Poland has allowed me to witness the incredible growth and expertise that each member brings to the table.

As a passionate advocate for continuous learning and professional development, I encourage all association members to consider submitting proposals and attending our partners’ conferences. These events provide a unique opportunity for us to broaden our horizons, stay abreast of the latest industry trends, and forge meaningful connections with professionals from around the world.

By actively participating in our partners’ conferences, we not only contribute to the knowledge-sharing ecosystem but also gain valuable insights that can enhance our own practices. The diverse range of topics and perspectives covered in these conferences ensures a rich and dynamic learning experience for everyone involved.

Attending these conferences is not just about personal growth; it is also an opportunity to represent IATEFL Poland on a broader stage. Your presence and contributions can showcase the depth of expertise within our community, fostering collaboration and partnerships that benefit us all.

Submitting proposals to present at these conferences is an excellent way to share your unique insights, experiences, and research with a wider audience. It not only adds value to the conference but also establishes our association as a hub for innovation and thought leadership in our field.

I urge each member to explore the upcoming conferences organized by our partners, consider submitting proposals, and actively participate in these enriching experiences. Together, we can continue to elevate our association and contribute to the collective advancement of our profession.

Thank you for your dedication, and I look forward to seeing our association shine on the global stage through your active participation in IATEFL Poland’s and our partners’ conferences.

Best regards,

Marta Bujakowska

Liaison Officer, IATEFL Poland
