MinneTESOL Interest Sections and Standing Committees
An Interest Section is a group of people connected to MinneTESOL who share a similar professional interest. Each year, the leaders of each section put on public professional development and networking events to better connect that specific community. We are currently looking for leaders for the Elementary Interest Section. Please email [email protected] if you’re interested!
