Culture teaching is little included in the practice of teaching Chinese to Speakers of Other Languages, which has lasted for a long time. Taking Chinese teaching in Shaanxi Normal University of China (a splendid university famous for Chinese teaching to foreigners) for example, the explanation and description of basic Chinese language uses is the most important objective in the teaching of reading, speaking, listening and writing, whereas culture teaching is very limited. This results in low motivation for students to learn Chinese, who are then unable to adapt into the local community and culture, and therefore cannot increase their Chinese standards. Based on the theory of culture intelligence firstly put forth by Peterson, one would be influenced by culture intelligence if he studies, learns, and works in a non-native language environment, and culture intelligence is closely related to culture teaching. Students with high culture intelligence could perform better than those without. This thesis is aiming at discussing the present situation of China’s Chinese teaching to foreigners and giving suggestions based on Culture Intelligence Theory. Firstly, it will discuss the concept and values of culture intelligence. After that, it will discuss the present condition of domestic Teaching Chinese as a Foreign Language and the lack of culture elements therein from the perspective of teacher, teaching and students. Finally, it will utilize Culture Intelligence Theory to make suggestions in related areas and explore students' Culture Intelligence cultivation standard as well.
