| Teaching
Statement My teaching I believe that teaching is the art of communication in which we keep exploring the communicative and effective ways through communications with our enthusiasm and interests on the subject. The teaching and learning process is flexible that the teacher needs to figure out the learners’ needs and try the easier and more understandable but effective methods to help the students to reach the teaching object. Trying to standing at the learners’ aspect, finding out each learner’s advantages and disadvantages, and connecting the difficulties resulted from the Chinese and English languages differences are the main principles to help the learners to involve in the learning atmosphere. Language is closely related to culture, so as the Chinese language teacher, I prefer to introduce the authentic Chinese culture to the learners. The emphasis on the learners’ participations such as role plays, for example, encourages the learners practice Chinese while they are doing the actions. |
