Conference Preliminary Programme and Registration Now Online!

Welcome back everyone! We hope you all had a lovely summer. We also hope you've come back rejuvenated and refreshed to get back into teaching.

If you still need some ideas for the classroom, look no further! Our 29th Annual Colloquium on November 26-28 (with David Crystal, David A. Hill and Ben Crystal) will provide you with more than enough input to cover the entire year and beyond! And you'll get to meet up with friends and make new ones.

You can download the entire schedule (format pdf) on the conference website.

Remember this event is free of charge to all TESOL France members.  
Non-member registration fee is 49EUR and automatic membership into TESOL France for an entire year! (which means free access to all TESOL France events and receiving our handy Teaching Times magazine!)
