TEC News
TEC News is Korea TESOL's online companion publication of The English Connection (TEC). Both are quarterly publications.

International Conference Program Books
You can download program books from past conferences via links on this page. Once programs are published, we will upload a downloadable version soon thereafter. These are Very Large Files! (10-20 megabytes each)
The KOTESOL Handbook
was published in 1999 through the collective efforts of a team of authors and editors.
Only a few hardcopies were printed. The plan to publish several thousand paperbooks fell through when the pubilshing company ceased production due to economic and other issues of the time ('the "IMF" problems, etc). The PDF for the book is available online.
Chapters' Newsletters
Many KOTESOL Chapters create their own local periodicals. These are linked from the Chapter homepages. A current listing of chapter newsletter homepages is available.
