The American Federation of Teachers salutes the TESOL International
Association, which for half a century has brought together educators, researchers,
administrators and students to advance the profession of teaching English to speakers
of other languages.
TESOL has been the leading voice for best practices in English language teaching
and learning, and has worked to achieve the highest standards of excellence.
Now more than ever, the AFT’s 1.6 million members are working closely with parents
and community partners to preserve public schools as safe places where all children
can find the building blocks of success—including high-quality early childhood
education, an enriching K-12 curriculum that supports bilingual learning, and
affordable access to higher education.
As part of our commitment to English language learners, the AFT worked with PBS
station WETA to launch the Colorín Colorado website. For more than a decade,
ColorinColorado.org has been the nation’s leading source of research-based ELL
information and materials for educators and parents.
The AFT will continue to stand with TESOL members and other professionals as we
nurture our students and build up our diverse communities.
The American Federation of Teachers is a union of 1.6 million professionals that champions fairness; democracy;
economic opportunity; and high-quality public education, healthcare and public services for our students, their families
and our communities. We are committed to advancing these principles through community engagement, organizing,
collective bargaining and political activism, and especially through the work our members do.
