About the Nonnative English Speakers in TESOL Caucus (NNEST)
The Nonnative English Speakers in TESOL Caucus was established in October 1998 to strengthen effective teaching and learning of English around the world while respecting individuals' language rights.
1. Caucus Major Goals:
- to create a nondiscriminatory professional environment for all TESOL members regardless of native language and place of birth
- to encourage the formal and informal gatherings of nonnative speakers at TESOL and affiliate conferences
- to encourage research and publications on the role of nonnative speaker teachers in ESL and EFL contexts
- to promote the role of nonnative speaker members in TESOL and affiliate leadership positions
Membership is open to all interested TESOL members, both native and nonnative speakers of English alike!
