The TESOL / Applied Linguistics Graduate Students (TALGS) Conference is an academic event organized by Linguistics and TESOL graduate students and faculty at East Carolina University and Greensboro College. We at TALGS aim to provide a serious but relaxed environment for you, our fellow graduate students and professionals working in TESL/TEFL/FL and other applied linguistics fields, to present your work, receive feedback, and network with others. The TALGS Conference exists to provide graduate students as well as TESOL and other Foreign Language professionals (including ESOL, TESL, EFL, ESL, TEFL, Spanish, French, German, DLI, and more) a forum to showcase your research and successful teaching practices and to learn from those of others.
