In a heartfelt gesture of appreciation, a group of students came together and created a video for Dr. Ana Carvalho as she moves into a new role here at the University of Arizona. The Second Language Acquisition & Teaching Program shared this about the event:
"Dr. Ana Carvalho recently stepped down as the Director of the Portuguese Program after several years in the position. Her guidance and impact on her students throughout the years was strongly felt. Many of them created a video to thank her for her impact, which can be publicly viewed here. Her students also wanted to add the following message:
'Thank you, Dr. Ana Carvalho, for your dedication, guidance, and care over all these years as Director of the Portuguese Program. Your hard work, generosity, and support have made a lasting impact. We wish you much success and happiness in your new role as SLAT Chair! We invite you to watch the tribute video with wonderful memories and heartfelt messages from colleagues and friends who have had the pleasure of working with you.'"
