Welcome to The 5th Mekong TESOL International Conference – 2026!

Hosted by Gia Viet Language Center, in collaboration with the Department of Education and Training of Can Tho City, Mekong TESOL International Conference stands as the Mekong region’s leading academic event, bringing together experts, researchers, and English language educators from across Vietnam and around the world.

With the theme Beyond Language: Re-Empowering Learners through Skills, Emotions, and Connections, the conference aims to redefine the role of language education — not merely as the teaching of language, but as a means of nurturing competencies, emotions, and human connections in a rapidly changing era.
