Summary of Teresa’s Tutorial Project – Language Continuing Education & French Translation Work

Teresa is pursuing two interrelated goals through Signum Tutorials:

1. Continuing Education for Teacher Recertification: As a certified teacher in Modern and Classical Languages (French) in Vermont, Teresa is seeking affordable, high-quality continuing education hours to meet her state’s five-year recertification requirement. She is especially interested in Hebrew, which aligns with her current role teaching Scripture and Tradition to high school freshmen. Tutorial engagement in language learning—particularly Hebrew—would both enrich her teaching and contribute to her formal professional development.
2. French-to-English Translation Project: Teresa also aims to resume and complete a long-standing translation project: the biography of a French Carmelite priest who founded a religious institute in 1932 and whose cause for canonization is progressing. She hopes to use Signum Tutorials to gain accountability, structured support, and formatting guidance as she works through the translation. The Institute of Carmelite Studies has already expressed interest in publishing the finished work.

Together, these goals will be supported through personalized tutorial sessions, beginning with an Orientation meeting to shape her plan and ensure alignment with her professional and creative aspirations.
