LILT was organized by a group of dedicated educators who recognized their obligation to professional growth, and their responsibility to successfully service and educate their students. They were equally united in their commitment to promote and advance the positive image and viable position of second language instruction on Long Island and in New York State.
LILT provides:
- A forum for ongoing communication and exchange of ideas in foreign language education
- Opportunities for professional development
- Direction and leadership on local, state and national issues regarding standards for second language instruction and acquisition
- Leadership in the development, innovation, and implementation of curricula and programs
- Sponsorship of regional events and programs which promote teacher/student participation and excellence
