    MITESOL Membership

    Why should I become a MITESOL member?

    MITESOL members become more knowledgeable and skilled in the field of English Language teaching and learning. They are provided with resources, networking opportunities and professional learning.

    Members collaborate with educational institutions, agencies, and professional associations to identify and resolve issues in English teaching and learning.

    We host an annual conference each fall that provides professional development opportunities for researchers, teachers, and teacher educators at all levels, from pre-K through adult. MITESOL members receive a discounted registration fee to attend the annual MITESOL conference.

    MITESOL selects the “Best of MITESOL” presentation annually and nominates that presentation to present at the International TESOL Convention and Expo. Our “Best of MITESOL” presentations have been selected to present at TESOL in previous years.
