Centre for Teacher Education
Introduction of Centre of Teacher Education:
Adhering to the philosophy of “love as a beam and wisdom as a wall” and the spirit of “being a teacher and a role model”, we continue to deepen and innovate education by strengthening the basic curriculum, deepening the humanities curriculum, and participating in volunteer service activities, as well as integrating and utilizing the rich humanistic resources of Tzu-Chi Volunteer Organization, the affiliated middle schools and experimental primary schools, and the outstanding teachers of Tzu-Chi Teachers’ Fellowship Association.
The Center arranges a “Bamboo Ceremony” for the graduating teacher trainees, in which they take the oath, thank their parents and teachers, and confer on the graduating teacher trainees the educational mission of “aspire to be a teacher and protect the wisdom of the world”. They are grateful for the support of their family members, and for the teacher’s earnestness and respect, and they hope that when they are interned or employed in the future they will be able to do their utmost in fulfilling their educational aspirations to protect their students, and to become a scripture master and teacher of the world.
