Past President: Dennis Mousseau

Treasurer: Sylvie Afilal
I am Sylvie Afilal and I teach Early French Immersion in Surrey. I have an interest in Learning Assistance because as a classroom teacher I find that when I have a collaborative approach with the Learning Support Teacher (that is the title of Learning Assistance Teachers in Surrey) I can best support students in my classroom as they are leaning in an additional language. I am proud to serve LATA as treasurer this year.
