The 21st Annual Chinese Teaching Conference took place on Saturday 19th October 2024 at the UCL Institute of Education, University College London. This year’s conference theme was  “New Perspectives, New Horizons”.

We have gathered together the workshop presentations so that they can be referred to and used by teachers in future Chinese language teaching and learning. The presentations have been arranged below in order of appearance at the Conference.
