Annual Conference Set for January
Greetings from Northwest Alabama! We are pleased to announce that the 2005 AMTESOL Conference will be held on January 28-29 at the University of North Alabama in Florence, Alabama. Sessions will meet in the Guillot University Center at the heart of campus.
Our theme this
year is Today's ESL: It's Not Your Granddaddy's ESL Anymore. It will focus on
new innovations in working with English language learners of all age levels,
including K-12, university level, and adult learners. It
will also look at the unique needs of the English language learners in our part
of the country. Educators and administrators are encouraged to come learn and
share. This is a great way to gain new ideas and inspire new ideas in others in
the field. We look forward to seeing you all in January!
