Unleash Engagement with Jamboard

Since discovering the power of acquisition driven instruction, Bertha Delgadillo has been on a mission to become the best teacher version of herself for her students. Currently, she is an impactful high school public educator in Savannah, Georgia teaching Spanish II – AP Spanish Language and Culture. Bertha, a native of Tampico, Tamaulipas, Mexico, has been teaching middle & high school Spanish since 2013.

As a teacher leader in her district, her classroom door is always open to world language teachers for observations. Bertha also enjoys sharing effective acquisition driven instructional strategies during district teaching training, professional regional and national conferences, and informal gatherings.

She holds a BA in Spanish Education and an M.Ed in Adult Education and Community Leadership from Georgia Southern University. In the spring of 2019, she received one of fifteen national Life Changer of the Year Awards and, in 2020, she was recently recognized as the Young Hispanic Leader of the Year by the Metropolitan Savannah Hispanic Chamber of Commerce as a result of her tenacious ability to guide students to use their language skills by serving and connecting with their local community.

In addition to her devotion to many aspects of world language teaching, she has a passion for inspiring all students, but most specially DACA students, to envision to the fullest and set out to reach their goals against all odds as she once did.
