Dedicated to Excellence in TESOL Education, Training and Leadership
TESOL Arabia has been actively serving the community since 1994, striving to make a positive impact in the lives of English language teachers, researchers, and educators. Our association is an affiliate of TESOL International Association. It works tirelessly to improve education for every student in the UAE, in the private or government sector, at every level, K-12 to university. We strongly believe that professional development is the most significant factor in promoting continuous teacher development. TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) is an area of remarkable growth and research across the globe, and we strongly believe that professional learning must continue to evolve and grow at a similar pace.
Through our dedicated team of volunteers and professionals, we have been able to successfully deliver 27 annual world-class conferences, thus underscoring our commitment to supporting the professional development needs of the TESOL community in the UAE, the Gulf and MEANA Regions, along internationally benchmarked standards.
