Instructor Referred Student Membership
Teacher educators may refer their students for a complimentary 2-year membership in TESOL International Association (TESOL).
Student referrals will be accepted in February, May, April, and October 2025. In order to participate teacher educators must submit their students name and valid email address using the supplied form during the dates listed below.
Interested teacher educators should ensure their area of focus includes 'teacher education/professional development' on their TESOL profile or be a member of the TESOL Teacher Educator Interest Section (TEIS). In addition, ensure that your communication preferences allow TESOL to send emails. If you still aren't receiving emails, please refer to our tips for receiving TESOL emails or email members@tesol.org.
