TESOL 2026
Justin Shewell, TESOL President 2025-2026
 
TESOL educators do more than teach language. We shape understanding across cultures and generations. We nurture the voices of our learners and empower them to dream, to advocate, and to connect. When we view English teaching as global citizenship, we recognize our shared responsibility, and privilege, in building bridges that make communication, compassion, and peace possible.
 
Justin Shewell is a passionate educator and teacher trainer, designing online TESOL programs that reach teachers worldwide, advancing global English education through technology, research, and professional development.
