Editorial Letter from Editors-in-Chief

Abstract

We are truly excited to announce that the first issue in 2021 of Focus on ELT Journal brings together six contributions, five of which report valuable insights into the process of teaching and learning. In this issue, we also publish a book review, featuring one of the recently published books in the field.

We are happy that our journal is steadily gaining recognition in the field of ELT since we have started receiving a higher number of submissions from different contexts, which simply makes our editorial tasks more challenging. Yet, not only does this help us understand the significance of our efforts in making our journal one of the resourceful and reliable venues for people of academic interest, but also it makes us much more motivated to pursue our goal to be recognized by the specialists in the field. To do this, we ensure that during the manuscript decision processes, we follow stringent publication ethics and rigorous external and internal reviewing cycles with the help of our editorial team and dedicated reviewers. Here, we cordially would like to express our gratitude to our esteemed editorial board members and eleven respected reviewers of this issue as featured above in ‘Reviewers of the current issue’ section.
