Episode 4 of our podcast is live! We showcase the nation's best teachers and in this episode, we talk with Marta García—elementary school ELD teacher to multilingual students in Salem, Massachusetts.

She came with the program "Visiting Teachers from Spain" and has worked in Salem for 17 years as a teacher and advocate for the immigrant and multilingual community. Marta has also impacted students and taught in California and Spain.

She was awarded as the Massachusetts Teacher of the Year in 2022, a platform she has been using to "amplify students' voices and the voices of the immigrant/bilingual families, who care deeply about the education of their children."

In this episode, Marta shares how this experience has provided new opportunities to continue her advocacy work in different institutions as she continues to serve multilingual students in the elementary grades
