A global education and travel zealot. Global Teacher of Year 2022 Recipient.
Anna’s global journey started in 2011 when she wrote grants to
host teachers from the United States, which is how she first met Allyson
Daly (Educational Programs and Projects Director in WorldLINK Foundation),
who traveled to Poland to teach, provide professional development and
help contribute to Images of International Teaching Excellence Achievement
(TEA) Teachers and their Students, a resource written by international
U.S. State Department teaching grant recipients for a worldwide audience.
Thus, began a pattern of written and oral literacy projects and professional
development that has spanned nine countries over four continents – The
Power of International Stories: Coming of Age in the Global Village,
which featured students’ writing from nine countries, under guidance
from Allyson Daly, edited by Mamta Kanti Kumar (Education Projects Expert
in WorldLINK Foundation), Julia Perlowski, Anna Krzeminska-Kaczynska
and Kashmeera Jaiswal; a jointly published article, “A World within
Arm’s Reach at Academic High School (VIIIPALO, IB World School
006265) in Kraków,” which appeared in Tools for Cross–curricular
Education and Achievement Program; and a DVD, A Good Person, Speaking
Well: Teaching Debate Collaboratively across Three Continents. Bringing
students to International Summits at Pompano Beach High School, Florida
became an expected trip every January. High schools in California and
the U.S. Youth Leadership Program round out a network of connections
built over time in the United States. Many people have helped along the
way to build the WorldLINK Foundation so that is why bringing global
projects to young leaders of tomorrow’s world across many countries
is possible.
