The upcoming TESOL Convention , March 2015, will be held in Toronto, Canada. It promises to be a very full, significant, event where ESOL teachers will meet and learn with colleagues from many countries and regions around the world. If you have applied to present or you are 'just interested' in attending the Convention take a look at the announcement below. If you are a member of ETAI (which is an Affiliate of TESOL) don't forget to note it on your application form. Bear in mind that some grants are only available to members of TESOL. Happy days, I wish everyone a fruitful and peaceful new school year.
