高中语文教师 Chinese Teachers

We are an international school and broadly follow the CAIE Cambridge Pathway, Primary and Lower Secondary, in the Prep School, to international examinations in the Senior School.

In addition, we shall be delivering CAIE Chinese IGCSE and AS/A Level: at IGCSE Chinese as a *** language or Chinese as a Foreign Language; at AS and A Level, Chinese (A Level only) - 9715, Chinese Language (AS Level) -

8238.
