CLTANSW exists to support and empower all Chinese language teachers across NSW. We actively foster professional learning, collegial exchange, and leadership development, recognising that strong teachers are central to strong student outcomes. Through our programs, resources, and networks, we aim to build capability, confidence, and collective expertise within our profession.


As educators, we shape the future. As a community, we strengthen one another. In an evolving educational landscape, our experience matters — and your voice matters. One of my priorities this year is to provide a trusted forum for teachers to engage thoughtfully with education policies and their implementation, ensuring that practitioner voices inform conversations that shape curriculum, assessment, and teaching practice.
By connecting educators with one another, and with the wider Chinese community in New South Wales, we deepen cultural understanding and enrich learning experiences for our students.


I warmly invite you to become part of our Association — as a member, contributor, or partner — and to
join us in shaping the future of Chinese language education in NSW.


Thank you for your continued dedication to our students, our profession, and our shared purpose.

Ke Fan
President, Chinese Language Teachers Association of NSW
