We are writing to you all to thank you for your contribution, support and sponsorship of TESOL Arabia.
Your participation in the 17th Annual International Conference and Exhibit held at the J.W. Marriott, Dubai, UAE March 10-12, 2011 meant a lot to us. Delegates’ reviews and reflections about the conference were very positive.
We are writing to thank our patron and main supporter, His Excellency Sheihk Nahyan Bin Mubarak Al Nahyan, Minister of Higher Education and Scientific Research. His continuous sponsorship of TESOL Arabia humbles us in every way. His generosity is something that we can never do without.
The speakers, plenary, featured or invited, were of high professional caliber. They brought with them many new ways of working in and with TESOLers. Their contributions, coming from different parts of the world, projected the experiences and the knowledge they transmitted to our attendees.
The sponsors of our conference on “Rethinking English Language Teaching: Attitudes, Approaches and Perspectives” are extremely appreciated. Without your sponsorship, our conference wouldn’t have provided the resources we had for our delegates and speakers alike.
The recruiters at our conference also deserve a big thank you. You were able to give our delegates a venue where they can go to find jobs. Your trust in TESOL Arabia and the conference organizers means a lot to us.
Our thanks also go to our attendees. Your belief in what TESOL Arabia can provide in quality professional development opportunities truly overwhelms us. You are the ones who are on our minds when we provide such opportunities. Your participation in the pre-conference and in-conference professional development courses shows how professional you are.
Finally, we would like to thank the Conference Organizing Committee for their professionalism and dedication to the success of the conference. You stayed up late to answer e-mails, write letters and create things. Your pay off is having a successful conference program that is of high caliber and quality.
