  • "We believe students excel when parents and caregivers learn with them. Our Parents as Partners Academy is where families get to share the learning journey with chidlren and building powerful connections to school together. We explored artificial intelligence, coding, and Microsoft Tools. We are grateful for partners like Yaritza Villalba to support our vision..."

    —Monique Darrisaw-Akil

    Superintendent of Schools, Uniondale Union Free School District, New York

  • "What truly sets Yaritza apart is her forward-thinking approach to integrating technology into teaching and learning. She skillfully demonstrates how tools like Microsoft Flip can enhance student engagement, foster collaboration, and amplify student voices in culturally responsive ways. Her sessions not only provide educators with practical strategies but also leave us with a renewed sense of purpose to create inclusive and dynamic learning environments. I highly recommend Yaritza as a speaker, mentor, and thought leader in culturally responsive teaching and educational technology—her work is truly transformative and inspires educators worldwide!"

    —Mario M. Sampilo, MAT

    Assistant Professor at Occidental Mindoro State College, Philippines

  • "Yaritza Villalba worked with our Regional Al group to deepen our thinking around Al in education through her sessions Al Beyond the Classroom: Family & Community Access and Human Skills at the Center: Empathy, Creativity, & Collaboration. Both sessions were engaging, thoughtfully designed, and provided practical tools districts can use to evaluate their current practices and ensure equity remains central to Al implementation. Yaritza shared valuable resources that districts can continue using well beyond the presentations to support the development of Al guidelines and practices. She created a welcoming, interactive learning environment that encouraged meaningful reflection, collaboration, and participation."
