The “BA” sentence is a special sentence pattern in Chinese and a key research topic in Chinese teaching circles both at home and abroad. Most international students find it difficult to learn and use the structure of “BA”. Based on the characteristics of the Chinese language and the nature of teaching Chinese as a second language, this paper combines theoretical grammar and teaching grammar, and tries to find effective strategy for teaching “BA” sentences from three levels. I also hope that this research can effectively improve quality of teaching Chinese as a second language and edit of teaching materials.
