บทคัดย่อ

The pursuit of enhancing teachers' competence is essential in advancing the university international students' performance. Higher education institutions are dedicated to fostering an environment that promotes both student engagement and academic excellence, recognizing the pivotal role of teachers' competence in this process. This study delves into the impact of teachers' competence on the university international students' performance, with a focus on the mediating role of students' willingness. The research constructs a structural equation model to explore the relationships between the various teachers' competence and international students' performance

The empirical validation, involving a sample of 240 international students, confirms the proposed model, demonstrating that teachers' competence has a significant positive impact on students' academic outcomes. Furthermore, the study reveals that students' willingness to learn serves as a crucial mediator in this relationship, highlighting the importance of creating a learning environment that encourages student motivation and participation. This scholarly inquiry not only deepens our understanding of the factors influencing the academic success of international students but also provides critical insights for educational policymakers and university administrators seeking to improve teaching effectiveness and student learning experiences.
