Welcoming the New Editorial Team and Farewell to Outgoing Editors for TESOL in Context (2025-2028 Term)

2024-06-20

We are pleased to announce the appointment of a new trio to our esteemed editorial teams at TESOL in Context for the 2025-2028 term. Dr David Wei Dai from University College London (England, UK), Dr Ward Peeters from Monash University (Australia), and Dr Sal Consoli from The University of Edinburgh (Scotland, UK) have graciously accepted our invitation to join our editorial teams. Their appointments will commence at the beginning of 2025.

Dr Dai, Dr Peeters, and Dr Consoli bring a wealth of expertise and a diverse range of perspectives that will undoubtedly enhance the quality and scope of our journal. We are confident that their contributions will significantly impact the field of TESOL and EAL/D and provide our readers with insightful, high-quality research and scholarship. Attached below are the links to their profiles.

They will join our dedicated editorial teams comprising Dr Sue Ollerhead, Associate Professor Julie Choi, and Dr Shashi Nallaya, who continue to serve with distinction and commitment. Together, they will work collaboratively to maintain and elevate the standards of TESOL in Context, ensuring it remains a leading publication in the field and increases its impact internationally as a Scopus-indexed, open access, refereed journal.

As we welcome our new editors, we also extend our heartfelt gratitude and bid a fond farewell to Dr Averil Grieve and Dr Sharon Yahalom, who will be completing their term at the end of 2024. Their leadership, dedication, and significant contributions over the past four years have been instrumental in advancing the mission and vision of TESOL in Context. We are particularly grateful for their work on the upcoming 2024 Vol 32 No 2 General Issue, which will be the final issue they lead as editors. Their efforts have left an indelible mark on our journal, and we deeply appreciate their hard work and commitment particularly through the most challenging times (Please see the section 'Archives' through our website if you are interested in reading one of the issues that they have contributed to as editors).

Please join us again in welcoming Dr Dai, Dr Peeters, and Dr Consoli to our team, and in expressing our sincere thanks to Dr Grieve and Dr Yahalom for their exceptional service. We look forward to the continued success of TESOL in Context under the new editorial guidance.
