President’s Message
Dear Southern Cone TESOLers & Guests,
TESOL Chile is pleased to host the 8th
biennial Southern Cone Conference. It brings together TESOL
professionals from Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay, Paraguay and
Chile. We extend a warm welcome to the Presidents and members
of each national TESOL association. Welcome to Chile!
The primary conference goal is to promote
the sharing of information and best practices related to the
conference theme: Critical Teaching for Critical Times.
TESOL Chile is honored to have Gloria
Salazar, Lydia Stack and Donald Freeman. These three speakers
have over a hundred years of dedicated and distinguished service
in ELT collectively. We are also delighted to welcome the
new RELO, Richard Boyum. We look forward to collaborating
with him.
We have received full and substantial support from the Embassy
of the United States. We are grateful for their very generous
sponsorship of this event. We also thank Heinle for sponsoring
Donald Freeman. Of course, special thanks must go to Universidad
Alberto Hurtado for providing the facilities for us.
Finally, I hope your conference experience
will be positive. It has taken a bunch of very committed people
on the TESOL Chile Board working extremely hard to put this
event together for you.
Mary Jane Abrahams
TESOLChile-President
