Due to the current situation with COVID19 worldwide, no in-person conference has been scheduled for 2021-2022 school year.

Instead, the ELLSA Board Members & Chapter Coordinators are working on finding more ways to connect local chapters and host more virtual professional development events during the 2021-2022 school year.

Sign up for our monthly newsletter to receive information about these opportunities to connect with educators in the region!

​ELLSA (English Language Learning Specialists in Asia) was founded in 2013 by a group of teachers at NIST International School in Thailand with the goal of providing current and innovative professional learning for EAL (English as an Additional Language) professionals in Asia. The first ELLSA conference created a network of teachers from the region, who strive to connect, collaborate, and advocate for the teaching and learning of ELLs (English language learners).
