Megan from Mexico — EPI Program Teacher Spotlight

For many teachers, the decision to teach in the US starts with a desire to learn more, give more, and experience something new. For Megan, a dual language elementary teacher from Mexico, her journey has been exactly that. She has embraced every part of her experience, the exciting moments, the challenging ones, and everything in between. In her classroom, she brings exchange to life through cross-cultural activities like a traditional holiday school festival inspired by celebrations across Mexico and Latin America. To her, it is about more than just the performance. It is about sharing the joy of Mexican culture with students and families. Seeing the community engaged, laughing, and celebrating together showed her how eager they were to learn and connect, giving her a sense of pride in the impact she is making, because, as she puts it, exchange teachers should build bridges instead of walls.
