Chinese characters know no borders; cultural heritage finds people everywhere who understand and love it.
We are well aware that translating an educational textbook is a complex and demanding task. However, we also know that a ‘新HSK教程’ tailored to the needs of Greek students can help countless students in Greece to understand Chinese more easily and to develop a deeper appreciation for the language and culture of China.
We warmly invite all teachers who share this love and passion for the language and culture to take part.
At the same time, we call on Chinese language teaching centres and organisations throughout Greece to contact us and recommend outstanding colleagues who combine professional competence with a passion for cultural dialogue.
Let us move forward together, hand in hand, so that the flower of the Chinese language may bloom quietly on the shores of the Aegean.
