ABSTRACT
Teachers’ stereotypes of students affect teaching behaviour. Correctly perceiving stereotypes of international students helps teachers to understand the student population more deeply and adopt effective teaching behaviour. This study focuses on the stereotypes of international Chinese language teachers towards international students in Chinese universities and its impact on teachers’ classroom management and students’ classroom performance. Summarizing the findings, we conclude that international Chinese language teachers have both positive and negative stereotypes of the international student body, and that negative stereotypes account for more than positive stereotypes. On this basis, this study further discusses the importance of international Chinese language teachers being aware of the existence of stereotypes of international students, and makes suggestions to strengthen the positive influences and weaken the negative ones.
