Teaching overseas students ancient Chinese is difficult, and the students who are deficient in the essential study interest tend to complain of too much difficulty in learning. Scholars have done some research concerning the teaching purposes, contents, methods and texts, which has yielded certain effects, but several problems still remain.

As flexible teaching sections, they need meticulous designs and repeated practice; special attention should be paid to the students` self-learning features and teachers` guiding features, and it`s also crucial to distinguish the capacity fostering from the normal teaching and examinations.
