With the rise of the Southeast Asian region and the immigration of new residents, in line with the development of my country's new southward foreign policy, learning the language of the new residents has become an important national development niche and trend. However, although the country has begun to initially cultivate language teachers for new residents, most of them use new residents as training objects for teaching in primary and secondary schools. However, the current number of teacher training is probably insufficient, and it is difficult to cover the geographic needs of Taiwan. In addition, there are gaps in the knowledge and abilities of the new residents, and it is more difficult to control the quality of talents.
Secondly, in addition to learning the language itself, new inhabitants’ language teaching needs to understand the local culture, customs, values, habits, or even the religious, economic, political, and cultural environment. These cross-cultural understandings and connotations are the future. The key elements and abilities for Taiwanese talents to compete and win in the world. Therefore, in order to cultivate new residents’ languages, cross-cultural communication and familiarity and understanding of environmental contexts are the first priority. Only with these multiple capabilities can Taiwan’s new residents have the advantage of multilingualism and travel around the world.
