IATEFL – become a member!!
Here in MATEFL our main aims include linking up with each other, sharing ideas and experiences, and discussing EFL issues. In doing so we create and maintain a feeling that we belong to a professional teaching network. However, though we are extremely active and number over 150 current members, we also need to look outwards towards what is happening in international EFL. MATEFL is an Associate Member of IATEFL and as such is able to offer all its members the opportunity to become an IATEFL member for only LM12. How would you benefit? Read this message from IATEFL’s current president, Tessa Woodward. It’s an extract from the IATEFL home page www.iatefl.org
Welcome to the IATEFL Home Page!
Our mission is to link, develop and support English Language Teaching professionals throughout the world. We do this through:
- a range of regular publications. These include six copies of our magazine IATEFL Voices and a free publication per year.
- holding an Annual International Conference with an extensive programme of talks and workshops, which attracts over 1,300 delegates;
- offering members the chance to join any number of 14 Special Interest Groups (SIGs);
- providing members with reduced rates on a number of selected professional journals;
- offering scholarships to specific groups of teachers to enable them to attend our Annual Conference;
- linking with associated professional organisations in other countries;
- providing help to others in forming or developing a local teachers' organisation.
We hope that you enjoy your visit to our website and that you will want to join the IATEFL family of over 3,500 members in more than one hundred different countries.

All good wishes
Tessa Woodward
President IATEFL
