TESL Ontario Home

Welcome to the TESL Ontario website!

Whether you are new to the field of ESL or a veteran, this platform offers information about career opportunities, certification, professional development, a discussion forum and resources for instructors and learners, to name a few.

The role of TESL Ontario is forever developing. As the ESL population changes due to demographic and immigration trends, we constantly need to address emerging issues and needs in our community in order to make informed decisions and plans to continue to move our organization forward. For a number of years, we have been a leader in professional development initiatives - the highlight being our annual conference showcasing latest trends in research and practice. As well, we have become a professional certifying body and a prominent stakeholder in the field of English-as-a-Second-Language in Ontario.

Being a non-profit organization, we rely heavily on the work of our TESL Ontario Board and small, efficient staff. I would like to thank them and the many volunteers who contribute their time and talents at the provincial and affiliate levels in supporting the organization.
