Editorial Policies

Before submitting a full paper for consideration of publication in the International Journal of TESOL & Education, we strongly suggest that you consider the following issues:

When you submit a manuscript to be considered for publication in the ijte, its content must not significantly overlap with any other papers from you or your co-authors’ groups that are under consideration or in press at other journals, with the exception of conference abstracts.

If you submit a related manuscript to any other journals while the submission to ijte is under consideration, you must send us a copy of the related manuscript and details of its progress towards publication. We reserve the right to decline the publication of a paper even after it has been accepted if it becomes apparent that there are serious problems with the scientific content or violations of our publishing policies.

Every author’s contribution to a research paper should be clearly credited.

The corresponding author should be empowered to act on behalf of all co-authors during the manuscript assessment and publication process.

The corresponding author should confirm that he/she has the authority to act on behalf of all co-authors and that all of the listed authors have agreed to all of the content of the book or article including the author list and author contribution statements.
