About the CLE Conference on Teaching and Learning


The CLE Conference on Teaching and Learning is an annual gathering that brings together educators, researchers, and professionals from a variety of fields to share ideas, experiences, and best practices in teaching and learning. The conference is designed to enhance English language education and promote teaching excellence by exploring innovative and practical teaching methods.

The CLE Conference has been held every year since its inception in 2019, under a specific theme that addresses current issues and challenges in education. The first conference focused on exploring old, new, and creative teaching and learning methods, while the second conference centered on sharing successful teaching practices. The third conference shifted its focus to the future of education in a post-COVID-19 world and explored ways to reimagine and adapt to the new normal in education. The fourth conference aimed to inspire and motivate educators to work towards a shared future where everyone is empowered to contribute to a better world.

The conference is open to CLE teachers, SUSTech faculty interested in teaching in English, and English language teachers outside SUSTech. It provides a platform for participants to learn from experienced educators and scholars, share their own experiences, and network with peers from around the world. With a focus on practical and innovative approaches to teaching, the CLE Conference on Teaching and Learning provides a valuable opportunity for participants to enhance their teaching skills and promote excellence in English language education.
