The international influence of Chinese is rising. By the end of 2020, more than 180 countries and regions around the world had carried out Chinese education, and 70 countries in the world had incorporated Chinese into the national education system. As an experienced person in cross-cultural teaching, many teachers of Chinese as a foreign language have said that international Chinese education has promoted cultural exchanges between China and other countries in the world, but it also faces many challenges in the new era. Wang Yin, who teaches Chinese in a private school in Thailand, has witnessed the rapid development of local Chinese education. She said that with the increasingly close exchanges between China and Thailand, the Thai government has vigorously promoted Chinese teaching. From kindergartens to universities, many schools set Chinese courses as compulsory or elective courses. Wang Yin told reporters that China's food culture and traditional festival customs are deeply loved by local students. "I often teach you some Chinese proverbs and Chinese etiquette about food and festivals with the help of online videos. I hope my teaching content will become a window for them to perceive Chinese culture." "Chinese is a key to open Chinese civilization and appreciate the charm of Chinese culture." Liu Yaru, acting Chinese President of the Confucius Institute at Charles Darwin University in Australia, said that the frequent warming of the global "Chinese fever" also stems from China's increasing global influence. According to the latest data from Victoria's Department of education, Australia's second largest state, the total number of people learning Chinese in public schools of primary, secondary and language schools in the state has reached 91000, accounting for 19.6% of the total language enrollment. Liu Yaru said that although the demand of people from all countries to learn Chinese continues to grow, there are still many problems to be solved in Chinese teaching. "In Australia, because there is no unified textbook, teachers carry out independent curriculum design and teaching arrangement around the syllabus. Although it has great flexibility, it also brings the problems of inconsistency of relevant courses and coordination of content. In addition, the stigmatization of China by Western media will also affect the local people's attitude towards Chinese learning." Novel coronavirus pneumonia has the biggest impact on the current Chinese language teaching. Many countries stop issuing visas, resulting in a serious "shrinkage" of the number of China teachers who exchange to China. Liu Yaru's Confucius Institute employs Chinese students studying for master's degree in education locally, temporarily relieving the vacancy of teachers. He said that many novice teachers have not undergone systematic teaching training, and some wrong educational ideas are inevitable in the teaching process, which will have an adverse impact on students' Chinese learning in the long run. Also affected by the epidemic, Huang Ming, a volunteer Chinese teacher, had to end her teaching in Morocco ahead of schedule and move her classroom to the Internet. Huang Ming said that in addition to college students of similar age, many local office workers also choose to join the Chinese class. "Many of them have been to China, fell in love with Chinese because of China's great rivers and mountains and long history, and wanted to improve their understanding of China." Huang Ming introduced that the first class he met with the students was to give them Chinese names. "The official language of Morocco is Arabic, so I will find the corresponding Chinese characters according to the pronunciation and meaning of their names. For example, a student's name means sacred cow in Arabic. With his very spiritual eyes, I gave him a Chinese name 'Ruoling'." She said that she used this way to let students perceive the cultural meaning behind the language for the first time. In the course of teaching, Huang Ming found that the standardized writing of Chinese characters is a difficulty that foreign students need to break through. "Arabic is written from right to left, while modern Chinese is just the opposite. I will focus on explaining the basic Chinese character structure and teach students to re understand the structural relationship between Chinese character writing one by one." In October this year, Huang Ming set foot on a teaching trip to Mauritius again. She said that the growth and progress of foreign students is the source of her greatest sense of achievement. She also hopes that more people can learn about a real and comprehensive China through Chinese and fall in love with Chinese culture. (outlook new era)
