Chinese is no longer the "heavenly book" of Moroccans! In Morocco's unique language atmosphere, this language has carefully but firmly opened its own path and become a language that everyone can learn. After a large number of China products flooded into the Moroccan market and China businessmen settled in Casablanca, Chinese, like French, Spanish, English and German, occupied a place in schools and other language learning centers.
At present, there are no statistics on the number of people who have started learning Chinese in Morocco. Only two things are clear: First, about 80 Moroccan students enjoy scholarships to study in China every year, and they can learn Chinese as long as they register at universities in China. Secondly, people in Morocco want to learn Chinese now because China is becoming an economic power that cannot be ignored in the world, especially in Morocco, where China products can be seen everywhere. Moreover, many Moroccans are attracted by the China market and want to go to China one after another. They can speak Chinese and communicate easily in China.
There are more and more Chinese contents on the Internet.
China's position in the world and its growing share in Moroccan economy, especially its great influence in the field of information, were the factors that led some people to propose introducing Chinese into the public teaching system a few years later. You know, five years later, half the browsing content on the Internet will be in Chinese.

In a classroom, more than 30 people are listening to the teacher speak Chinese textbooks, supplemented by French. Textbooks are written and imported in China, and are explained in Chinese Pinyin and French, as well as audio-visual materials. According to students, Chinese pronunciation is a bit difficult, but the use of multimedia teaching AIDS is of great help to them.
Private schools and language colleges began to follow suit.
In addition to Muhammad V University, other universities also hope to establish partnerships with universities or Confucius Institutes in China. Private schools have also begun to pay attention to this rich mine that may contain the future. Last June, 1 1, Agadir Private Comprehensive University Group signed a cooperation agreement with China Wuhan University. According to this agreement, the two sides should establish an education equivalent to a master's degree in marketing management and inter-school exchanges between teachers and students. Students from private comprehensive universities may go to Wuhan University for further study in the future. In addition, Wuhan TV channel will be opened in Agadir campus, and the local China Cultural Center will be developed.
