Our center is located in Tamsui, northern Taiwan, near the historic site Fort San Domingo. It overlooks the Tamsui River and offers a distant view of Guanyin Mountain. We provide Chinese language courses and teaching knowledge for foreigners and new residents. It is the most beautiful Chinese Language Center in northern Taiwan and the only one established within a university extension division in Tamsui. Currently, our courses include online Chinese (customizable) and Chinese for new residents. In the future, we plan to offer TOCFL specialized classes, Chinese teacher training, as well as semester and short-term Chinese study programs for overseas applicants.

Our center was officially established on August 4, 2022. The course planning originated from the Chinese Teaching Section of our university’s Office of International Affairs (since September 2010), which provided listening, speaking, reading, and writing Chinese courses for exchange and international students. After the establishment of the center, we actively served the community’s Chinese language knowledge needs in response to the national policy of promoting Chinese. We have therefore redesigned Chinese courses for international students and exchange students with new concepts. The highlight of the Aletheia Chinese Language Center lies in combining the faculty’s background to offer foreigners and new residents multi-faceted and comprehensive Chinese language learning.
