Growing as a Global Educator

Tori Land’s Story

“After graduating from UMF in 2017 and teaching in South Korea, I returned to Maine to teach and pursue my Master’s in TESOL at USM. I currently serve as the K-12 ESOL Teacher and Coordinator for RSU 9 and teach part-time at UMF. I was honored to be selected for the Fulbright Teachers for Global Classrooms Program in the 2025-2026 school year. Collaborating with a national cohort of educators has already had a meaningful impact on my work, providing fresh strategies and a supportive space to reflect on my practice.

This spring, I will travel to Morocco with 12 other U.S. teachers to collaborate with local educators and exchange insights on our respective education systems. Following this field experience, I will develop a Global Education Guide to share with my colleagues and students. Ultimately, I hope to use these skills to support RSU 9’s International Student Program and strengthen global learning opportunities at both RSU 9 and UMF. I highly recommend that other UMF alumni apply for the next Fulbright program cycle!”
