Trevor Steele
We were honoured to welcome Trevor Steele, the renowned Australian author known for his outstanding Esperanto novels. Steele’s works have received international acclaim, solidifying his position as a prominent figure in the Esperanto literary community.
Hoan Trần (Ĝojo)
In 2011, Hoan began learning Esperanto at a university club in Hanoi. Over several years, she worked at the Central Office of UEA in Rotterdam, held various roles in Esperanto organisations, and is currently studying interlinguistics in Poland. In Vietnam, she primarily teaches Esperanto and assists foreign teachers. Hoan was one of our very successful teachers in Ballarat (January 2024).
