As the implementer and participant of teacher training programs, the author of this article analyzes the current situation of teacher training in border areas based on a survey of Y County, Yunnan Province, and summarizes the main practices and experiences gained in county-level teacher training in border areas. The research results show that county-level teacher training in border areas faces some difficulties in professional knowledge, teaching ability, teacher education philosophy, and information technology education equipment. Finally, based on the research results and personal training experience, an optimization path is proposed to provide useful references for teacher training work.
