Stoneleigh-Burnham’s Brittany Weiss joins ILI’s Board

Brittany Weiss, Associate Director of International Admissions at Stoneleigh-Burnham School in Greenfield, MA, has joined the all-volunteer board of directors for the International Language Institute of Massachusetts (ILI).

“We are very pleased to have Brittany as part of the ILI family,” said ILI board president Eric Wirth. “Her extensive academic and professional background around the world and here at home will go far in supporting our work, including high-quality language instruction and teacher training, free English classes for immigrants and refugees, and volunteer opportunities throughout the Pioneer Valley.”

Weiss has considerable experience abroad in Asia, Latin America, the United Kingdom, and western and central Europe. Prior to joining Stoneleigh-Burnham, she was Admissions Associate at the American International School of Budapest in Budapest, Hungary, where she worked with students and families from more than 60 nationalities. Earlier, she served as Assistant Director of Alumni Engagement at her alma mater, Williston Northampton School in Easthampton, MA, and as a resident faculty member at Emma Willard School in Troy, NY. She holds a BA in Spanish from Siena College and an MS in educational administration and policy studies from University at Albany.

“Through her chosen career, Brittany has developed a passion for collegial teamwork on the job,” said ILI Executive Director Caroline Gear. “Her skills and enthusiasm are a welcome addition to our board and much appreciated by staff.”

We are honored to be the recipient of the @paradis We are honored to be the recipient of the @paradise_city_arts_festivals silent auction this year during the Memorial Day weekend (May 27-29) at the Hampshire County Fairgrounds. Artists who exhibit and sell their works donate items for the auction. This gives you a chance to take part in the fun of bidding on their great creations while supporting ILI at the same time!

Don’t miss free introductory Spanish classes on Saturday and Sunday, right at the show! We'll be holding three 20-30 minute sessions in the late morning and early afternoon, followed by feedback and suggestions on how to find the ILI language course that’s right for you. Classes are limited to 6-8 people per session, so head to the auction tables when you arrive at the festival and sign up in advance. 

✨Calling all volunteers!
Volunteer with ILI at Paradise City Arts Festival! You get free parking and a free pass into the festival on the day you volunteer. You'll assist ILI staff at the auction tables and booth sit for artists while they take quick lunch and bio-breaks. It's lots of fun, and just think of the wonderful art you'll get to enjoy!

Last night our #GivingVoice2023 student panel feat Last night our #GivingVoice2023 student panel featured Luz Muñoz (Colombia), Canser Bayir (Turkey), and Alina Chirilov (Moldova). The three students are pictured here in the audience before the panel discussion with ILI career and college counselor, Beth Reddish.

Former student Annie Castaño hosted Giving Voice this year and led the panel discussion by asking Luz, Canser, and Alina questions about their experiences. We heard about their backgrounds, what led them to come to the U.S., their experiences since being here, the communities they’ve found and formed, the ways ILI has impacted their lives, and their future goals. We are so grateful to our students for sharing their stories, it was a highlight of the evening! ⭐️
