Dr. Steve Bautista, Coordinator and Counselor for the Center for Teacher Education at Santa Ana College as well as Vice President of ACCCTEP, the Association of California Community College Teacher Education Programs, discusses his journey to working with teacher candidates. During his conversation with NACCTEP Executive Director Julie Ferin, he talks about how ACCCTEP was formed on the model of NACCTEP in 2003. Steve also shares the inspiring, full-circle story of 2022 California Teacher of the Year Alondra Diaz, an alumna of Santa Ana College's program and partnership with Chapman University to produce bilingual teachers.
When meeting with new students, Steve asks what their dreams are, a question inspired by Jeff Duncan-Andrade who speculated, "How can you educate children without knowing what their dreams are?"
