Messiah’s Jan Dormer selected to serve on TESOL Standards Professional Council

Jan Dormer, associate professor of TESOL (teaching English to speakers of other languages), was selected by TESOL International Association to serve on its TESOL Standards Professional Council. The council supports the association in advancing the quality and expertise in the field of English language teaching through standards for teaching and learning.

“I am excited about the opportunity to have a voice in national and global conversations regarding the standards that govern English language learning and teaching, and expect this professional service to enhance my work at Messiah College,” said Dormer, who will begin the one-year term in November.

In addition to being an associate professor of TESOL in Messiah’s Graduate Program in Education, Dormer is the author of “Teaching English for Reconciliation” (2018) and “What School Leaders Need to Know about English Learners” (2016, TESOL Press).
