The research data collected in four phases: First phase, 35 teachers from 14 Chinese schools in Myanmar answed an open-ended questionnaire. Secondly, 14 teachers selected from the participants in stage one as school representatives were interviewed.Thirdly, four teachers from stage one are selected for in-depth case studies. Fourth, 20 undergraduate and graduate Burmese students from National Taiwan University, National Chengchi University, and National Taiwan Normal University filled out a survey on this Chinese learning while in Myanmar. The findings of the current study are that Chinese teaching has been blooming in Myanmar a long time even when the country underwent many political turmoil. Most of the Chinese Schools in Myanmar are independent. Therefore, the system, teaching hours, schedules, contents all vary. There is a close yet complicated relationship among Myanmar Chinese schools, teachers, instruction, teaching materials, local environment, society, and culture. In order to develop a deep understanding of Chinese Schools in the country, it is important to get an inside’s view into the Myanmar social an cultural ecology and the local Chinese cultural.In order to improve the instruction, we should start from understanding the teachers’ experiences,their professional training, current teaching situation, students, teaching environment and the causes that lead to the present situation. Suggestions for Myanmar Chinese schools, teaching materials, teaching and teachers are provided.
