General Conference Information

Carolina TESOL is excited to invite you to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, from October 28-30, 2024 for the 2024 Carolina TESOL Fall Conference! This year’s conference will be held at the Hilton Myrtle Beach Resort at 10000 Beach Club Drive, Myrtle Beach, SC 29572.  The Conference Planning Committee is pleased to welcome educators from across North and South Carolina! 

Our chosen theme is Heritage Still Speaks. We want participants to consider the importance of the endowments of the past, and the challenges of the present, while guiding students toward future opportunities: language, culture, and all. This conference provides an opportunity to share innovative practices, creative initiatives, discuss best practices, and learn about successful strategies that lead to greater success for our region’s Multilingual Learners (MLs) and their families. Therefore, we invite you to join us this fall to share in the power of collaboration to develop strategies to support our MLs and educators toward their goals.
