- Abstract
In the field of teaching Chinese as a foreign language, native Chinese teachers, as an important image of "the other", have an impact on the self-image and professional identity of non- native Chinese teachers. In the non-target language environment, the native Chinese teachers have brought about the discourse of conflict and competition to the non-native Chinese teachers in the aspects of the micro context and the macro discourse through the reference perspective of the “mirror image of others”. In order to help build a better professional identity, it is suggested that the non-native Chinese teachers should improve their Chinese skills, enhance their sense of belonging in career and establish positive occupational values, so as to support their career. At the same time, it is necessary to focus on developing the native advantages of non- native Chinese teachers into favorable resources so as to meet the needs of their own career development
