Tayebeh Shalmani
Conference Committee Chair

Having previously served as co-chair before taking on the role independently, Tayebeh has consistently demonstrated dedication, reliability, and a willingness to step in wherever help is needed. Her thoughtful leadership and collaborative approach are invaluable to the planning and delivery of TESL Ontario’s annual conference.

We are incredibly grateful for the time, energy, and expertise she contributes to TESL Ontario’s largest annual event, and for her continued commitment to supporting our members and the wider language education community. Thank you, Tayebeh, for your ongoing commitment to TESL Ontario, for sharing your expertise, and for all the ways you continue to support your colleagues and our profession!
