This article takes a case study approach to exploring membership, belonging,
and identity amongst English language teachers in the twenty-first century. It
explores findings from two membership surveys conducted for the International
Association of Teachers of English as a Foreign Language (IATEFL), and
considers the impact of recommendations emerging from the first survey which
were implemented to enable members to engage more fully in the organization.
The article shows that a combination of reaching out to the broader community
of teachers (using increasingly widespread digital technologies), combined with
supporting targeted local actions, not only better enables teacher associations
to achieve their mission to serve all their members, but also takes into account
the changing nature of belonging and identity of ELT teachers, enabling them
to become more engaged and have a stronger voice in the ELT community as a
whole.
