Most of the students here in Taiwan majoring in Teaching Chinese as a Second Language often would like to go to the United States of America to teach after graduation. However they might not be familiar with the situations of Chinese language instruction and the current trend of foreign language instruction in the United States. This paper intends to provide those who wish to teach in the United States with some information concerning Chinese language instruction there. First I will introduce several different types of Chinese language programs in the U.S. Next I will introduce the Standards for foreign language learning in the 21st century and how the field of Chinese language instruction is following the standards, and also the newly established AP Chinese program. Finally, I will briefly introduce the qualifications of Chinese language teachers for teaching at the secondary schools.
