台灣華語文教學學會成立於2002年,有鑑於全球中文熱,華語教學躍升學術專業領域,國內華語教學相關系所紛紛成立,因此由台師大華研所和國語教學中心召集國內專家學者成立以學術與專業為主的學會。會員包含各大學教授、學生、華語教師、民間教學機構及企業團體,定期舉辦年會及教學研討會、辦理師資培訓課程,並發行華語刊物,是台灣最具代表性、規模最大的華語教學專業團體。 台華會官方網站提供詳細的學會介紹及最新動態,並提供歷年研討會資訊,有志研究華語教學者可參考學會簡介、章程及入會辦法,亦可線上報名參加研討會或工作坊。此外,台華會自2006年起發行《台灣華語文教學》期刊,內容包含華語教學相關理論、實務經驗、機構介紹等,詳細徵稿資訊於官網定期更新,方便投稿者參閱。最後,網站除了學會資訊,亦提供求才看板,供國內外教學機構徵聘華語教學專業人才。
