不少離鄉背井，有意留台發展的外籍生對學習中文很有興趣，但苦於學習機會少，所以本系決定開設一個免費的課程，讓大家能夠有簡單的管道學習。我們特別請來了一位中英文流利的研究生，不僅從零開始設計課程，還親自帶領大家學習，確保外籍生們能輕鬆簡單地跟上進度。
學生們學習熱情滿滿，雖然每個學生的中文程度不一，但依然耐心互相扶持幫忙。老師也超級用心，除了準備教材，還會在課後檢討、收集意見，為未來調整教學方式，讓課程更貼近學生需求。第一堂課從「ㄅㄆㄇ」開始，剛開始大家因為互相不熟識，而有點拘謹，但老師很耐心地帶領氣氛，分享他的中文學習歷程、從閒聊慢慢進入課程。
課程因為老師的引導，氛圍越來越輕鬆，配合老師自製的簡報、教材，用各種生動的比喻來解釋發音，學生們也玩得很開心，還會互相糾正、彼此幫忙。有時候，大家甚至會主動要求再多練習幾次，學習氣氛超級熱烈。從一開始的生疏，到後來大家像朋友一樣聊聊天、學學中文，師生之間的距離也越來越近，課程變得不只是單方面的教學，而是一種互相交流、一起進步的過程。
這堂課不只是教中文，更是讓大家發現學習語言的樂趣。希望未來大家能繼續帶著這份熱情，把中文融入生活，也用它開啟更多與世界交流的可能！
Many international students who have left their home countries and hope to build a future in Taiwan are eager to learn Chinese but often struggle to find suitable learning opportunities. To help bridge this gap, our department launched a free course, providing a simple and accessible way for them to start learning. We specially invited a bilingual graduate student fluent in both Chinese and English to design the curriculum from scratch and personally guide students through the learning process, ensuring that they can follow along with ease.
The students’ enthusiasm for learning was incredible. Despite varying proficiency levels, they showed great patience in supporting one another. The instructor was also highly dedicated—not only preparing teaching materials but also reviewing lessons and collecting feedback after class to refine the course and better meet the students’ needs. The first lesson started with the basics, beginning with “bopomofo.” At first, both the teacher and students were a little reserved, as they were not yet familiar with one another. However, with the instructor’s patience in setting the tone, sharing his own experiences of learning Chinese, and easing into the lesson through casual conversation, the atmosphere quickly became more relaxed.
As the course progressed, the learning environment became more engaging. The instructor’s custom-made slides and materials, along with vivid analogies, made pronunciation easier to understand. Students had fun and actively helped each other correct mistakes. At times, they even requested extra practice sessions, making the classroom lively and full of energy. What started as a structured lesson soon evolved into a warm and friendly learning space where teachers and students interacted like friends. The course became more than just a one-way teaching experience—it was a collaborative journey of growth and cultural exchange.
This class is not just about learning Chinese—it’s about discovering the joy of language learning. We hope that the students will carry this passion forward, integrate Chinese into their daily lives, and use it to open doors to even more opportunities for global communication!
