Teaching
Statement
There
are more dimensions to Chinese language learning than simple
memorization of words and grammatical
structures; as a teacher,
I feel
that part of my job is to bridge the cultural divide between the
USA and
China. I
believe in presenting information in a palatable way to
students.
The key to learning a language is communication,
and the only communication worth taking part in is meaningful communication.
Therefore
students should learn
how to speak about what interests them, in
addition
to the basics necessary in day-to-day survival in a foreign
country. |
