How to teach foreigners China culture? Don't be superstitious about the "doll effect"

At the beginning of this month, the Shanghai Cultural Teacher Certification Training Course for Foreign Language Teachers entered the middle stage. In fact, dozens of trained teachers have rich experience in teaching Chinese as a foreign language. In today's society, there are not a few people who have lived abroad and often come into contact with foreigners. However, from Jordan to India, from intelligence to France, it is rare to have face-to-face communication with "students" for such a long span. Many of our teachers belong to this type. In their hearts, they are interested in people all over the world. The problem is that China's teaching Chinese as a foreign language, especially cultural and cross-cultural communication, overemphasizes campus accent and academic accent. When it comes to culture, it is nothing more than calligraphy, Tai Chi, martial arts, Beijing opera, paper-cutting, cross talk and so on. In fact, there are many ways to show China's soft power, which has been described in my previous book "Japan vs China-An Unfinished Chess". In various universities in China, there are international students from all over the world studying Chinese. An old idea of China is: to cultivate feelings, we should start with dolls. In fact, the 20-year-old young people in the ivory tower are no longer dolls, and the basic world outlook has been formed; Moreover, according to the experience of Japan, the United States and other countries, among foreigners learning Chinese, those young people who lack work experience and contacts in their own countries are often unable to enter mainstream enterprises and political institutions in their own countries after returning home. Many foreigners can speak fluent Chinese and can only "do short-term jobs" in China ... If Chinese and Japanese cultures want to truly become international powers, they should focus on business people (not just business people, but those who study while working). Once these seemingly "passive" groups learn Chinese deeply, they will have stronger interaction and * * * voice in all aspects of China! As a Chinese teacher and a cross-cultural teacher, it is very important to have certain social experience and life experience. So I think teachers who are still in university (majoring in Chinese as a foreign language) or just graduated from university are not suitable for cross-cultural communication and teaching. Only when a person's outlook on life and world has reached a certain maturity and has a considerable humanistic precipitation and background can he be qualified to influence others. Otherwise, it is easy to "stand in the wrong team" and "be rebelled" ... The following is a brief overview of the most basic course content, which only contains 5% of the courses I have taught, mainly to give teachers a space to develop their ideas. In addition to the conventional communication methods and information security, the content of teachers must also have a new perspective: 1) Globalization and diversification-we have overemphasized that the West is already reflecting, so we don't need to learn from the wisdom of others. 2) By making many foreign friends and drifting around the world, will we be able to have a global vision? Does it mean that you are diverse? What is the scientific connection between religion and "origin", gene and blood relationship? 3) China people have regarded the American model as an imperial edict, but in the western world, the American model is not popular everywhere. 4) Don't always think that beer belly is developing rapidly! Welcome to "face saving", we are the most hospitable nation in the world ... 5) We didn't know the infiltration of Islam until we arrived in Europe! In the shocking Middle East, the Islamic population only accounts for 20%! Coupled with the Jewish forces that actually control American politics and economy, it is necessary to understand the essence of these two fraternal peoples (ideologies). 6) Children in Shanghai and many southern cities can't speak local dialects. Is it a good thing or a bad thing? Chinese dialects are living fossils of China's history and civilization, and they are very knowledgeable ... Many "fossils" actually exist in our neighbors. 7) What is one of the "bad habits" that the Japanese can't change?
