Abstract
In recent years, with the increasing influence of international Chinese education, some Chinese language teachers have also begun to engage in the work of international Chinese teachers. To address the various issues that may arise when Chinese language teachers transition to international Chinese teachers, this study adopts a case-comparison method. It involves interviewing both Chinese language teachers and international Chinese teachers, observing and evaluating their teaching, and then processing and analyzing the data. Based on the findings, the study provides insights and suggestions for teachers before and after taking up their international teaching positions, which are of positive significance for the construction of the team of international Chinese teachers.
