Pay It Forward Tours is pleased to announce our collaboration with EAL/D specialist and current President of the Association for Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (ATESOL NSW), Cindy Valdez. We offer you a life-changing opportunity to take part in a unique professional learning and travel experience. 

Each day, more and more educators find themselves working with students who have a language background other than English. Students from diverse backgrounds will continue to walk into our classrooms on a daily basis, and therefore, it is important that we develop an understanding as to how English learners acquire second language literacies. 

"Artful Reading"' aims to:

  • identify the literacy and language learning needs of ELL students who are learning English.
  • collaboratively design learning and teaching strategies to develop reading strategies.
  • team-teach a learning sequence, provide feedback and share our reflections with colleagues.


During your 10-day tour of the Philippines, you will also explore the beauty and culture of this wonderful country, develop a first hand understanding of the beliefs, traditions and customs as you are immersed in this rich culture. You will grow personally and professionally as you have the opportunity to visit local classrooms and organisations during your 10 day journey through the Philippines.

Teachers are encouraged to plan an activity/ lessons and bring along some resources that can be left at the school for future use.
