I am bringing you another incredible story of Latino success in the States because of education. If you’ve been listening to recent episodes, you know that I am passionate about sharing the value of investing in an education as a path to success. My guest today has a powerful story of what happened when he did this.
Dr. Armando X. Orduña is the Executive Director of Leadership Programs and Partnerships for Greater Houston for Latinos for Education. Armando’s background is anchored in the intersectionality of educational access for immigrant-origin youth & families and the role innovative learning practices plays in language acquisition. He creates opportunities for marginalized communities to take leadership in EC-12 educational spaces.
Orduña has over 23 years of experience in education, with a particular expertise in the intersectionality of STEAM access for immigrant youth and families, and the role practical STEAM learning plays in foreign language acquisition. Before joining Latinos for Education, Orduña served as the Director of Outreach Programs for Children’s Museum Houston where he led a department of educators in the expansion of multilingual family and Out-of-School Learning programs throughout Greater Houston. Orduña also served as a secondary school Science teacher in urban,Title I public schools.
