The authors of  this book are scholars from teaching training institutions  and universities, as well as professional frontline  teachers.

It covers  curriculum setting, design of teaching materials, teaching  principles, methods, strategies, and evaluation. The book  also discusses issues and concepts such as concept-driven  learning, identity change and recognition of L1 and L2  Chinese teacher, pinyin teaching, Chinese character  teaching, evaluation for learning improvement, and  integration of South Asian non-Chinese speaking students  into local schools.

This is a highly informative and carefully  presented book, providing high value insights to scholars  from university and teacher training institutions and  teachers from kindergartens, primary, and secondary schools  around the world.},
