Foreign language teaching is a process, in which we should always exploring new teaching methods, continuously understand and identify the students’ needs, interests, hobbies and potential.
In the process of teaching Chinese, I consistently find not only the charm of Chinese, but also my interests in the process of learning. Having conversation with the students, lets me, from time to time, find the strangeness and smartness of the Chinese language. Now I begin to notice the phenomenon of my language that we usually did not pay attention to, and begin to think about our language habits.
Thanks to cross-cultural communication in foreign language teaching, I know different Chinese cuisine, as well as the traditional Chinese culture and philosophy in our daily meals. The knowledge enriches my life and will also enrich my students’ life.
As a teacher, we should learn to think in the habit and our daily life.
TCSL gives me an opportunity, which lets me come back to re-examine the Chinese language and Chinese language learning. At the same time, she also lets me learn to stand on a new angle to get to know our Chinese. The transformation of this point of view helps me to promote the teaching Chinese to foreigners.
