NEW ESL Civics and Naturalization Education PLN

Published on September 17, 2025

We are excited to announce TESOL's NEW PLN: ESL Civics and Naturalization Education Professional Learning Network!

This new PLN brings together teacher educators dedicated to advancing the quality of English language teaching for immigrants seeking naturalization in their adopted countries. The network complements TESOL International Association’s professional development, advocacy, and research initiatives while focusing on the unique needs of educators and learners in civics and naturalization education.
 
Through this PLN, members will:

  • Share and develop teaching materials, tools, and methods.
  • Exchange research and scholarship.
  • Support learners as they prepare for citizenship tests and navigate the naturalization process.
  • Connect with colleagues who share your passion for this important area of TESOL.

We look forward to your participation and contributions as we grow this new professional community!
