University of Chicago

“The University of Chicago is honored to recognize excellence in teaching and sincerely congratulates this year’s Outstanding Educator Award winners, who are exceptional in their field and role models for all students.

The University deeply appreciates the lively minds who thirst for knowledge that these educators have nurtured and inspired. We thank them for going above and beyond the call of duty every day and leaving an impression that will be carried over a lifetime.”

Each year, newly admitted UChicago students have the opportunity to reflect on their time in school and nominate an educator who played a significant role in their education, made a positive impact in their lives, and whose influence has brought them to where they are today.

Dr Gamblin, Vice Principal Academic:

College is about preparing our pupils at all stages of their educational journey and our teachers play a critical role in supporting our pupils as they explore the world around them. For our leaving pupils to nominate teachers who have positively impacted their lives is a true testament to the impact our teachers have on supporting, developing, and inspiring the next generation of learners at College.

The quote from the University of Chicago is real testimony to Elisabetta’s dedication to teaching, they note “Elisabetta stood out among a field of incredible, capable, and inspiring educators. We are proud to recognize them, and in turn, recognize your institution!”  

Congratulations, Dr Tondello!
