HANOI – The ASEAN TeachingEnglish Online Conference 2024 is a multi-day virtual event from 10 October to 30 October, offering a unique opportunity for English teachers and education professionals across the ASEAN region to enhance their teaching skills and deepen their understanding of learners. The conference, specifically designed for those in primary and secondary education, will provide participants with cutting-edge insights and practical solutions for improving English Language Teaching (ELT).

This is an incredible opportunity for teacher and educators in Viet Nam to advance their professional development as they will be able to interact with speakers from across ASEAN and well-known international ELT experts.

Teachers will also gain insights into the latest trends in ELT, hear from renowned experts on how to better understand and motivate learners.

The conference this year will focus on the theme of Understanding our learners with speakers addressing important topics such as Motivation, Behaviour, and Resilience. They will share strategies for fostering a positive learning environment and explore on accessibility, equity, and the future of education technology through topics on AI and edtech to help deepen your knowledge in key areas of English language teaching through subject mastery. Our esteemed panellists will share effective techniques for supporting diverse learners and help you enhance student engagement and achievement through inclusive practices. You will also learn more about inclusive innovation and discover pioneering approaches to understanding learners from our award-winning ELT professionals.

Last year’s conference saw immense participation from teachers and teacher educators who participated from Viet Nam, who gained valuable insights on innovative language teaching, curriculum development, teacher agency, diverse learning environments, and themes of Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
