TCIS Chinese Program Earns Global Recognition with Top Educator Award

Thai-Chinese International School (TCIS) is celebrating an extraordinary international honour as Chung-An Hsieh, Head of the TCIS Chinese Department and known to students, parents, and colleagues simply as Mr. Tony, has been selected as one of only 10 outstanding overseas Chinese teachers from around the world.

Mr. Tony Chung-An Hsieh, Head of the Chinese Department at Thai-Chinese International School (TCIS), has been honored with the Overseas Chinese Excellent Teacher Award. The prestigious accolade, granted by Taiwan’s Overseas Community Affairs Council, recognizes outstanding Chinese-language educators working globally. This marks the second time TCIS has won this honor, as it previously claimed the title in 2017.

Mr. Hsieh, who joined TCIS in 2003 and assumed his current role in 2008, has led the Chinese program for over two decades. His dedication has bolstered the curriculum, nurtured teachers, prepared students for Chinese-language competitions and proficiency assessments, and assisted students in their pursuit of university and scholarship opportunities in Taiwan.

Frank Yang, Chairman of the TCIS Board, praised Mr. Hsieh's "exceptional leadership" and the impact of his work on the school's Chinese program and the success of generations of students. The award ceremony in Taiwan will provide Mr. Hsieh with a trophy and certificate.
