With the results collected during the two month teaching practice in Betong Tessabal4 School,this study is based on the Hutchinson&Waters theory of demand analysis.And through participation and research in the field of study,we can acquire a large amount of first hand information.This paper aims to analyze the progress and needs of 110 Muslim Chinese language learners in order to grasp the real and current situation of their learning level and proficiency by way of questionnaire,survey and careful observation.And through this information,effectively set up an effective plan to increase learning interest and proficiency.The specific research contents outlined in this study are divided into five sections.Section One:Introduction.This section elaborates the background,purpose and significance of this study;carefully combs through and analyzes the literature related to this research,and expounds the innovation of this research and the way of thinking.Section Two:The theoretical basis and design of this study.This section covers the definition of foreign language needs analysis and other related research and contents,research methods and the questionnaire design of demand analysis.Section Three:Results and analysis of the Chinese learners' questionnaire survey at Tessabal4 School,understanding the basic situation of the students,such as learning difficulties,the target demand,the type of learning needs and the influence of the Islamic students through the statistics and analysis of the data.Section Four:The parents' perspective of their children learning Chinese.This is mainly to understand the Tessabal4 School students'family background,such as the parents' personal information.This includes the parents views on Chinese teaching,as well as the desire for their children to learn,and the attitude towards learning Chinese.Section Five:The existing problems and suggestions to resolve them.This section provides insight into what were the main problems found and through thorough analysis of the results,a proposed solution to meet the needs of the Islamic students to learn.The final results show that there still exists a problem with Chinese teaching and learning at Tessabal4 School.This includes four principle aspects:students,teachers,teaching and teaching materials.First,Tessabal4 School's students do not have a clear goal,and a severe lack of learning initiative.Students also lack the basic confidence in learning Chinese.This includes individual differences in the learning level of students and the lack of a good learning language environment.The final problem is the students' family lack of support for learning,and the family's own level education.The second point is the lack of Chinese teachers,as well as the lack of qualified teachers.Third;lack of varied teaching methods,as well as few classroom activities.The fourth and final point;the lack of interesting content of the Chinese textbooks,large differences between the topics and students' lives,and an abnormally heavy emphasis on literacy.The suggestions for the above problems are:with regard to the student's perspective;to be able to broaden the students' horizons,make clear the students' learning objectives,stimulate students' interest in learning,foster students' language skills,establish an equal relationship between teachers and students and improve students' self-confidence.With regard to the teachers,to improve the overall quality of the teachers,an to strengthen their language and culture training,and improve teaching management.When improvement is shown,then raise their salaries and benefits.In turn,this should reduce the burden on teachers.With respect to the teaching materials,the school should develop textbooks according to the student's learning objectives and adjust the course content.With regard to dialogue-based interactions,have it relate to the students' actual life.With respect to the Chinese teaching method,make it more centered around the student,which means to discuss the teaching method,improve the students'thinking ability;active participation classroom atmosphere introduction method and question and answer method,and making use of real world language learning.This will stimulate students' interest.I hope that the above results can improve the quality of running a school,have a curriculum design that is more suitable for students' needs,so that students enjoy learning more.
