PRESENTER:

Dr. Gabriel Díaz Maggioli is an Academic Advisor to the Institute of Education at Universidad ORT Uruguay, where he also teaches in the graduate programs in Education. He has shared his theory in praxis with colleagues in the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. He has been an active member of and contributor to the work of TESOL International Association and IATEFL, for which he was the first Latino President (2019–2023).

IATEFL is where I meet colleagues with similar interests to me, and find out what's new in English language teaching.
