NNETESOL proudly hosts two conferences a year to provide networking and professional development opportunities for ESOL
teachers working with English Language Learners (ELLs) at all educational levels. Each year we attract a variety of exhibitors
from small regional publishers like Pro Lingua Associates in Brattleboro, Vermont, to larger educational publishing companies
like Pearson Longman. These publishers display the latest teaching materials and teacher resources in the field--textbooks,
leveled readers, CDs, games, dictionaries, and professional literature.
During the conference
publishing representatives talk with participants about their materials, listen to the needs and wants of practicing ESOL
teachers in northern New England, answer questions and welcome feedback about their materials. Past exhibitors have included
publishing companies, higher education institutions, individual teachers who are marketing a particular product, and non-profit
institutions. Below is a list of exhibitors from the most recent conference:
