Whether you are trying to make a difference in the lives of your students, teaching newcomers to the field to be the best they can be, or conducting research in the field of second language learning, PRTESOL will connect you to a community of professionals involved in the field of teaching English to speakers of other languages and bilingual education. Membership in PRTESOL is open to teachers, college professors, students, administrators, researchers, curriculum developers, tutors, volunteers, and other interested individuals.
