The Foundation for Scholarly Exchange (Fulbright Taiwan) is offering two fellowships for 2026-2027: English Teacher Trainer Scholarship Program (TEFL Advisor) and English as a Medium of Instruction (EMI) Advisor Scholarship (EMI Advisor). Applications are now open and will be accepted on a rolling basis.

TESOL and WIDA are joining forces to create Assessment in Action: Supporting Multilingual Learners Through Data and Practice, a three-part webinar series that brings together educators, researchers, and leaders to explore how the assessment of multilingual learners can provide meaningful data to inform practical and impactful instructional practices. Webinars take place on 14 April, 28 April, and 12 May 2026.

TESOL is pleased to announce the launch of the Leadership and Mentorship Interest Section (LMIS). LMIS advances the scholarship and practice of leadership and mentorship in English language teaching by fostering a collaborative, inquiry-driven community focused on professional growth. The interest section explores leadership styles, effective communication, intercultural team dynamics, and strategies for navigating organizational change across diverse educational contexts.
