What Others Are Saying

"If I were in charge of a language-teaching institution, I would not be interested in where the teachers were born, what their first language was, or whether they had a regional accent. There are absolutely no grounds for discrimination these days."
David Crystal

"The TEFL Equity Advocates campaign is absolutely necessary. We need more and more voices in our industry to speak out against discrimination and inequality, to support the cause of equality in diversity and to promote professionalism and collaboration among teachers of diverse backgrounds.”

“I wholeheartedly support the aims of this blog – the ending of discrimination against more than 96% of the teachers of English in the world. Or maybe 98%…..or more…”

"I’m deeply impressed with this campaign because it doesn’t simply make bold statements or pass passionate judgement- it actually provides an intelligent and culturally-sensitive roadmap towards making changes that will have ripples in policy and practice alike."
