NileTESOL 2021 Virtual Conference
Registration
Registration is now closed (this event already took place).
Details
The world we live in is constantly changing, which challenges both teachers and students to keep up with this progress and find ways to adapt to it, learn from it, and reflect on it. Teachers need to revisit their teaching to re-define their roles, their curricula, and the tools and strategies they use. Since much online information is now available to students, teachers have become facilitators to learning. Therefore, today more than ever, educators need innovative strategies and instructional materials that can be integrated with the available technological tools in order to enhance their teaching and empower themselves and their students to embrace both current and future challenges.
This year’s conference has a variety of interest areas, such as teacher training, teacher and/or student motivation, professional development, program administration, learning technologies, collaborative learning, corpus studies, research development, and assessment, to list but a few.
English language professionals and publishers are all welcome to participate. The broader the range of professional interests, the more stimulating and beneficial the NileTESOL 2021 online conference will be.

Gregg Sotiropoulos
Gregg Sotiropoulos will speak about "Work Ethic: Preparing our Future Global Agents of Change to compete in today’s ever-changing world." On Friday, January 28, 2022, from 6:00 pm to 6:30 pm
Bio: Gregg Sotiropoulos (BA, MBA) was born in New York, USA. He began his career in education as an elementary school teacher in 1998 in New York. He holds a bachelor’s degree in Education, a Master’s Degree in Business Administration and has participated in numerous seminars and conferences concentrating on Leadership, Coaching, Negotiations and Training. He has extensive experience in teaching English as a foreign language at all levels. He is currently working for MM Publications as an ELT consultant and teacher trainer.
Summary: As a father of two wonderful children and an educationalist for over 20 years, I have experienced just how important the concept of “work ethic” is for our students. We will examine this concept by looking further into how we can prepare and advocate work ethic as a creative, meaningful, self-fulfilling and productive competence. It starts at home, continues through school, and thus helps children understand their position in the family, in their homes, in their community and in the world.
