As countries around the world continue to develop, the number of language learners has skyrocketed. Learners learn for different purposes, some for the purpose of language and cultural interest, some for the purpose of studying abroad, and some for the purpose of enhancing their vocational abilities. This study will focus on the characteristics of Chinese language learners who aim to improve their vocational skills. It will summarize and analyze the learners' backgrounds, learners' levels, learning attitudes and learning purposes, and factors that influence learners' learning goals. Finally, it will make suggestions for teachers who teach Chinese language learners who aim to improve their vocational skills.
