Who We Are

EdYOUfest was founded in 2015 with a single mission: to be the most successful, creative, and ground-breaking

English Language Teacher community in the world. 

​

                                   EdYOUfest was conceived by Chuck Sandy and Giovanni Rottura in the summer of 2015, with the aim of 

                                    providing English language teachers with more opportunities to share their training experiences while       

                                     also having fun together. After organizing numerous training and development events for teachers

                                       worldwide, it became clear that a gathering was needed that would create a space for teachers to meet,

                                      develop friendships, and foster collaboration that would last beyond the event.

 

The name EdYOUfest, short for "educational festival," was chosen to reflect the event's focus on teachers and education professionals.
