TCSOL Certificate | Teaching Chinese to Speakers of Other Languages | Center for International Foreign Language Teacher Education (CIFLTE)

Center for International Foreign Language Teacher Education (CIFLTE)


If any word can capture the essence of the world today, it is ¡®change.¡¯ The changes are rapid and the world is increasingly fluid rather than rigidly divided as in earlier times, creating both opportunities and tensions. As citizens of today¡¯s world continue to interact in virtual, physical, social, economic, and political arenas, the demands for the ability to speak additional languages continue to grow more dire. As a predominant medium of communication, knowing a foreign language is key not only to improving the life quality of mankind but also in resolving political and economic conflicts, thereby promoting peace and prosperity worldwide.

The Center¡¯s core mission is two-fold:

a) to promote and enact top-notch teacher training activities, effectively addressing critical demands for qualified teachers of Chinese and English, especially in Asia, the Middle East, South America and the US;

b) to pursue classroom-based inquiries that would enrich the Center¡¯s teacher-training activities and contribute more broadly to the general understanding of foreign language learning and teacher preparation.
