Abstract

Economic globalization has accelerated the exchange and integration of cultures among countries worldwide, intensifying the process of educational internationalization. In the new era of educational reform and openness, with the increasing number of international schools, more foreign teachers specializing in various languages and disciplines come to China to work in the international schools. The cross-cultural management issues of foreign teachers have gradually become prominent. This article explores strategies for managing foreign teachers, focusing on recruitment, compensation, training, and performance evaluation, to help international schools better address the challenges of cross-cultural management of foreign teachers in China.
