California Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages
CATESOL members and nonmembers are invited to submit proposals for presentations. We expect many submissions and unfortunately cannot accept them all. Please review the instructions and rubric before submitting. If you are proposing a commercial/publisher session, Interest-Group or Level session, or CATESOL Board session, please submit your proposal to the Non-adjudicated Proposals Form. Please note that CATESOL is a nonprofit, volunteer-run organization. Accepted presenters are responsible for their own transportation, hotel, food, and conference fees. Accepted presenters are eligible for a discounted conference rate. Many schools and organizations have funding available for professional development. See the CATESOL Educational Foundation for award and grant opportunities. For proposal questions, please email catesolprogram@gmail.com. For general questions about the conference, including an interest in volunteering or participating on the conference committee, please email us at conference26@catesol.org.
