Congratulations to March’s NJTESOL/NJBE
Member of the Month
Monica DelRosario
Monica is fairly new to teaching ESL, but has jumped in with both feet. She advocates and actively looks for the best ways to support her students, especially her SLIFE students. She lives and works in Roxbury district. She also has four beautiful children (with her husband of 20 years). She can often be found cheering on her students and children at football games or other activities.
Monica is currently finishing her ESL certification and pursuing her bilingual certification and Master’s in Urban Education.
Monica shares, “I have a heart for advocacy and a love of people and am humbled to be a part of such an amazing group of educators fighting for our multilingual families.”

The nominee must be a member of NJTESOL/NJBE. Nomination Link
