New Membership Tier

We are pleased to announce that we have launched a trial of a new membership tier - Early Career Teacher Membership.  This new membership is a full individual membership, which includes a Special Interest Group and the opportunity to pay extra for discounted periodicals, but runs for two years.  It is open to teachers who are in the first two years of their ELT teaching career, who have never been a member of IATEFL before (including as a student member).  As an Early Career Teacher member you will also be subscribed to an online Forum where you can seek advice from experienced members of the IATEFL community.  We are hoping that this will enable new teachers to grow and develop with other like-minded professionals, keep up to date with the latest developments and share their own new and exciting ideas.

Additional funding support

We can also offer a reduced rate to deserving teachers who live in countries where there are no local Teaching Associations. For more details take a look at our Wider Membership Individual Scheme.
