Abstract

As the concluding section of this book, this chapter summarizes the major findings of the study in terms of the tensions in the current Transnational Chinese Language Education (TCLE) field as well as provides a group of practical guidelines, for example, to adopt a postmonolingual mindset in Chinese class, which could be incorporated into future postmonolingual transnational 中文 (Zhōngwén/Chinese) teacher education programs. In the end, the limitations of this study and suggestions for further research in the field are presented.
