Article Submission Guidelines

  • Content: The TESOL Greece Journal aims at promoting development and innovation in the field of ELT methodology and practices.Since the vast majority of our readership is teachers active in the field of ELT we encourage articles that have both a solid theoretical foundation and give advice and tips on practical matters. We cannot publish articles that aim at self-promotion, commercial promotion of materials or courses even those that are available for free. Submission of an article or any other type of writing does not guarantee publication. You may be asked to redraft your work in collaboration with the editorial team which takes time and your work might be selected for publication in a later issue. Although we prioritize original articles we will consider articles for a reprint (Please check Legal (8) below).
  • Writing style. We encourage contributors to write in a clear and easy to read style as the journal is aimed at the novice as well as the more experienced readership.

  • Format and Length: Please use Times New Roman, size 12 fonts, with 1.5 spacing. Optimal length is 1,400-1.600 words ~ 800 words for Special Interest Group (SIG) articles.

  • Send your text and any photographs as an email attachment to: journal.tesolgreece@gmail.com as a Microsoft Word document. Please do not send PDFs.

  • Legal: By submitting an article for publication we assume that your article/review has neither been previously published, nor is being considered for publication elsewhere. If that is not the case and you wish us to consider it for a reprint, we need to know where the article was first published and that you have obtained permission for that. The author must also obtain permission for reproducing any photos in their work.
