With heavy hearts we have to report that our colleague Helen Varea de Kurtzemann passed away on August 12th.
She was not only a teacher and teacher trainer but also the daughter and the mother of a teacher, and the grandmother of a translator. She combined her professionalism in the workplace with the upbringing of a large family and exhibited equal commitment in both roles. She considered herself a lifelong learner and was highly esteemed and warmly loved long after her retirement by those of us who had the privilege to work with her.
