Elisabeth Chan, PhD has 15 years of experience as an English language educator, working with adult English learners in post-secondary institutes. She has presented, researched, and published on social justice work in TESOL, where she draws upon her life experiences as a second/fourth-generation Chinese American from the U.S. South.

Social Justice Skills for ELTs

English language teaching professionals are inherently involved in social justice issues related to languages and cultures. Identifying a need for change and having the passion to create conditions for change are important steps. Taking action requires us to strengthen our social justice skills. Like any skill, social justice skills must be studied, practiced, reflected on, and improved in a continuous cycle. Through this presentation, we will examine our skill levels and reflect on possible next steps for ourselves, classrooms, and communities.
