First of all, the counterpart work of this major must be engaged in Chinese teaching, which mainly includes two working environments at home and abroad. Friends who plan to teach Chinese abroad can choose two ways: one is the annual Chinese teacher volunteer program sponsored by Hanban (Confucius Institute Headquarters), which organizes exams and arranges countries and regions where volunteer teachers can choose to stay, but not more than three years.
Now I have passed the exam of Hanban, and I have been chosen to be a volunteer Chinese teacher in Thailand. As for the salary, Hanban dad is quite reliable, and going to other countries will bear part of the salary, so we can rest assured. Another way is to go overseas to teach Chinese through education and training institutions. As I know very little about it, I won't talk nonsense. Admittedly, we also have a place in China: we mainly undertake Chinese teaching for foreigners in international schools or education and training institutions. At the same time, you can also enter a university to teach Chinese to international students in China.
Secondly, the employment direction related to this major is to teach Chinese in China. Compared with international Chinese teaching, traditional Chinese teaching is more stable. This is also the Jianghu where most of my undergraduate students go. They obtained the teacher qualification certificate, obtained the teacher establishment, and then went to public schools. Of course, you can also enter private schools or education and training institutions to engage in Chinese teaching-related work.
Then, you can also engage in the operation and editing of new media. In this era when the Internet is pervasive in all walks of life, the close integration of industry development and network has become an irreversible trend. Of course, the student party majoring in Chinese international education can also join the editing, publishing and new media industries, and use their knowledge of Chinese ontology, China culture and cross-cultural communication to help themselves. You see, the scum of my professional field has also begun to use my overseas Chinese teaching work to operate the official WeChat account and share stories about life and work, which has really gained a lot of joy and a sense of accomplishment.
Finally, you can also engage in foreign trade-related work and apply your foreign language skills to your work. Foreign trade work is not as stable as a teacher, but it is more challenging. It is suitable for students with excellent eloquence and spoken foreign language, meticulous and flexible work, and strong adaptability. After all, you have seen a lot of market and accumulated ability in the study and practice of Chinese international education major, so this job is another way out.
In addition to the above work, students majoring in Chinese international education can also take the civil service examination, enter state organs and units, or develop in the administrative, secretarial and human resources departments of enterprises. However, a lot of news broke out recently, saying that the subject categories of our majors were not very clear during the civil service examination, and there were many incredible stories, probably because the professional development was immature. This kind of thing is beyond our control.
