AZ-TESOL (Arizona TESOL) is the Arizona state
affiliate of TESOL, the international professional organization for educators in the field of Teaching
English to Speakers of Other Languages. Since
our organization began in 1954 as the Arizona
Bilingual Council, it has provided over five decades
of service.

AZ-TESOL's members work with learners of English
in public schools, colleges and universities, and
adult education programs, and they also serve as
teacher trainers, administrators, and researchers.
