2023 Overseas Chinese Teacher Training Program for Young Children

To address the shortage of Chinese teachers for young children in the Czech Republic and other parts of Europe, the Czech Taiwanese Association has prepared the "Training Program for Teachers of Chinese for Young Children Abroad". Experts and academics from National Pingtung University (NPTU), who teach a range of courses in early childhood education, Chinese language teaching and Chinese teacher training, have been invited to the program. Their courses include "Diverse Methods of Teaching Chinese to Young Children", "Teaching Listening and Speaking in Chinese" and "Teaching Chinese Characters", to help teachers improve their teaching skills. The courses total 48 hours. You can find more information about the courses and instructors on the event's web page.

The Czech Taiwanese Association warmly invites teachers from heritage language schools in Europe, as well as everyone interested in teaching Chinese to children who wants to continue working in this field, to join us and grow together in this area!

Classes are held via Google Meet. They start at 14:00 Taiwan time and end at 16:50 or 17:50 (8:00–10:50 or 11:50 Czech time). The maximum number of participants in each class is 30.
