MWALIMU NYERERE MEMORIAL ACADEMY 16.6 The Confucius Institute (CI) From November, 2015, The Mwalimu Nyerere Memorial Academy (MNMA), in collaboration with the Confucius Institute (CI) at the University of Dar es Salaam and the government through the Confucius Institute in China has been offering Chinese language courses in the main campus of Kivukoni. Since the introduction of Chinese language learning programmes by the Confucius Institute in Tanzania, many young people and adults have been trained in Chinese language courses in various centres operating under the Confucius Institute, including the MNMA. For example, more than 600 Tanzanians have been taught the Chinese language. About 8000 Chinese language graduates at the CI are employed in China companies in Tanzania. It is clear that, due to the growing economic ties between China and Tanzania, the demand for Tanzanians to learn the Chinese language to create more opportunities is increasing. 16.6.1 The Chinese Language Training Programme The Chinese Language courses that the MNMA offers are “Chinese Language for Beginners”, “Chinese Language Level 2” and “intermediate Chinese”. Students pursuing Chinese language courses in those three levels also have opportunities to sit for HSK and HSKK examinations from level one up to level four. HSK and HSKK are Chinese Proficiency exams that qualify one to secure chances for a scholarship to study or work in China or in Chinese-affiliated institutions and companies elsewhere. Chinese Language in the Academy is now offered as an “elective course”. Students enrolled at the MNMA in any NTL level will therefore have options to study CL 00101, CL 00201 and CL 00301 for “Chinese Language for Beginners”, “Chinese Language Level 2” and “intermediate Chinese” respectively. In line with the growing ties between Tanzania and China, the Academy is introducing diploma and bachelor’s degree courses in Chinese to prepare Tanzanians to learn, teach and share cultural values and enhance innovation and technology acquisition. The bachelor’s Degree programme is expected to commence after The National Council of Technical Education (NACTE) approves it. 16.6.2 The General Goal of the Chinese Programme The main aim of the Chinese Programme at the Academy is to enable students and the communities as a whole to understand the importance of the Chinese language in forging economic, educational, technological and cultural ties between the two countries of China and Tanzania.
