Abstract

From the perspective of teaching psychology, there are psychological crises in overseas students, such as cognitive dissonance and learning adaptability crisis, lack of learning motivation, low self-efficacy, alienation of learning environment and identity crisis, which directly affect the learning efficiency and mental health of overseas students. In response to these psychological crises, it is necessary to apply the cognitive behavioral therapy to improve the learning adaptability, adopt goal-setting and self-regulation strategies to enhance the learning motivation, and provide multicultural teaching activities to enhance the sense of belonging and identity in the learning environment. Thus, the overseas students can always maintain a good mental state and learning state during the study period, and effectively get more comprehensive supports.
