Public Affairs Officer Roberto Quiroz II presented certificates to participants and congratulated the teachers for their immense talents and contributions. “In America as in Cameroon and all nations, teachers serve in a noble profession that builds the academic foundation and success of students. Many people remember their teachers decades after leaving their classrooms, and it is because of the positive impact they make in their students’ lives. We congratulate you for completing this webinar series, and look forward to even greater partnerships ahead in support of your efforts to promote English teaching in Cameroon.”
During a reception, the James Baldwin Information Resource Center (IRC) staff distributed copies of the English Teaching Forum, who lauded the new appearance of the journal.
