The American Association of Teachers of Slavic and East European Languages (AATSEEL), founded in 1941, exists to advance the study and promote the teaching of Slavic and East European languages, literatures, and cultures on all educational levels, elementary through graduate school. While the largest proportion of its activities and members concentrate in the area of Russian, AATSEEL encompasses all Slavic and East European languages, literatures, linguistics and cultures. AATSEEL holds an annual conference in December of each year; its publications include the Slavic and East European Journal (SEEJ) and the AATSEEL Newsletter, each of which appears four times per year. AATSEEL also publishes an annual membership directory. All members receive all publications at no additional cost. Membership also provides discounted registration at our annual conference.
