2 Chinese international education professional employment direction

Teaching Chinese as a foreign language

Our professional counterpart is teaching Chinese as a foreign language. Friends who want to teach Chinese abroad can choose two ways. One is a volunteer who teaches Chinese as a foreign language sponsored by Hanban every year, with a term of six months to two years. Volunteers can stay in countries and regions arranged by Hanban, but the stay time cannot exceed three years. The other is an education and training institution, which requires candidates to pass CET-6 and be sent abroad to teach Chinese through the unified arrangement of the company. This kind of work lasts about a year, and you will return to China after the visa expires.

Teaching Chinese as a foreign language abroad is a short-term job, not a long-term job abroad. The work content and environment are really not as beautiful as you think. Many volunteers who return home have to look for jobs from scratch. Every year, the teachers sent by the state to Confucius Institute are mainly Chinese teachers with many years of teaching experience, and we have few opportunities just graduated. But it depends on human efforts. Those who really like this job can try. When they are working, they should pay attention to improving their overall foreign language level, especially their spoken English. After returning to China, you can do foreign language related work, continue to substitute classes in domestic training institutions or international schools, and run your own classes, with rich experience.

Chinese teaching

Compared with international Chinese teaching, the direction of traditional Chinese teaching is more stable. We can obtain the teacher qualification certificate at the corresponding stage, and then take the teacher preparation exam. After obtaining the quota, we will have the opportunity to enter public schools. Now there are more and more private schools and education and training institutions, and friends who like challenges can include these two types of work units in their choices.

Although private schools are not as stable as public schools, they have their own advantages in the direction of maturity. The survival of private schools is closely related to the quality of students, so paying great attention to teaching quality is more conducive to the improvement of teachers' teaching ability. In addition, teachers in private schools have more freedom in teaching and have the opportunity to try some novel teaching methods, which is conducive to our professional growth. It is recommended that friends work in private schools first, and prepare for the exam while accumulating teaching experience. After getting the establishment, they can consider entering public schools. Of course, they can also set up their own training institutions.

New Media Operation and Editing

In this era when the Internet is sweeping all walks of life, it has become an irresistible trend to closely link the development of the industry with the network. Friends of Chinese international education can join the editing and publishing industry and make use of the subject knowledge of Chinese language and literature to seek a place for themselves.

At present, many companies' new media operations are mainly to maintain the daily operations of WeChat and Weibo, including content editing, daily maintenance, event planning, fan interaction and community operation. It is necessary to summarize interactive strategies based on fan feedback and improve the offline influence of the official WeChat account. Although many companies have WeChat and Weibo accounts all over the sky, the operation of new media has yet to mature. The operation of new media is not only low-cost to attract users, but more importantly, the product operation thinking that runs through it. If the friends can persist in this position and learn the essence, they will have the ability to stay at the forefront of the trend development forever, and the career development prospects will naturally not be bad.

Editors mainly plan, edit and write books, magazines and newspapers in newspapers and publishing houses, and also include some work of reviewing, processing and revising. Being an editor requires quick thinking, wide knowledge, solid writing skills, good reading ability and product marketing ability. During the interview, many companies will require you to have editing work or internship experience. Mastery of computer and basic software is also necessary, and those with publishing professional qualification certificate are preferred.

Foreign trade direction

Small partners majoring in Chinese international education can also enter the field of foreign trade and apply our English ability to our work. A friend who just graduated is new to a foreign trade company. It is best to start as an assistant salesman, who is mainly responsible for daily data entry, integration and classification. Daily and month-end accounting of various categories; Assist in product development; Assist sales staff to communicate with customers simply and handle orders. Sometimes we also contact exhibition activities and collect some exhibition information.

Foreign trade is less stable than teachers, but more challenging. Suitable for friends with excellent eloquence and oral English, meticulous and flexible, and strong adaptability. There are many jobs in foreign trade, such as foreign trade salesman, document and documentary. Small partners start from the work of salesmen. After they are familiar with the company's business process for one or two years, they will develop more smoothly and become foreign trade managers or supervisors.

In addition to the above work, the small partners majoring in Chinese international education can also take the civil service examination, enter the state organs and units, or develop in the administrative, secretarial and human resources departments of enterprises. No matter what job you are engaged in, you can't stop learning. Because the actual work and course study are different after all, we should make up our work skills and industry knowledge according to the needs of our work, and constantly "recharge" ourselves with the progress of our work and the development of our industry, so as to really make some achievements in our own industry.
