Join ATESOL ACT

Why join?

ATESOL ACT is the Association of Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages in the Australian Capital Territory. Our members work within a range of educational settings including early years, school education, adult English language programs, ELICOS, tertiary studies, teacher education and research programs.

We aim to support all teachers and learners of English as an additional language within the ACT. We offer workshops and seminars which cater for professionals working in the TESOL field and welcome mainstream teachers with EAL/D students.
