Chinese Management
Chinese Teaching Department Management
The functions of the Chinese Teaching Department Management are of the utmost importance to the school. These team members are the primary and most competent bilingual members of staff, and so they are necessarily the nexus at which the foreign and the Chinese elements of the school meet. Aihua is founded upon, utterly imbued by, and thoroughly dependent upon, a harmonious working relationship between foreign and Chinese people. For this reason it is fair to say that the Chinese Teaching Department Management is the heart of the school. The challenge faced in developing a harmonious relationship between people from very different cultures is not only dependent upon open mindedness toward extreme cultural differences, but also, more crucially and more overwhelmingly, on being able to communicate effectively despite significant language barriers. Our Chinese Teaching Department Management Team must facilitate this challenge through translation and through open communication. They need to be thorough and proactive about passing information between foreign and the Chinese elements of our school.
