Information Special Interest Groups
Special Interest Groups (SIGs)
IATEFL's Special Interest Groups (SIGs) play a major role in the association's activities; organising events around the world as well as producing newsletters with "cutting edge" articles in their various specialist fields. They are a "must" for any teacher who wishes to keep up to date with the latest developments and newest ideas in whatever specialist area of the profession they are interested in.
