However, the Chinese character writing often becomes a learning difficulty for Chinese as Second Language Learners (CSL), to learn it by only repetitive writing also make learning becoming boring. Furthermore, learner’s different culture sphere and length of study results their variable errors. The CSL learners were given an Chinese character assessment based on the Chinese character diagnostic and multiple remedial instructions (CDMRI) system . Based on their error types, different teaching strategies were used in the multiple remedial instructions. These include multimedia stroke presented also the practicing; practicing of the combination of components, as well as the stories of Etymological. Through a variety of way of learning, we hope it can enhance students' mastery of Chinese characters. The study participants were 63 learners studying at the Mandarin Training Center (MTC) in Taipei, with a proficiency level of beginning in Chinese defined by the Steering Committee for the Test of Proficiency – Hanyu (CSTOP in short). They were purposively assigned, the experimental group (EG) with 32 students and the comparison group(CG)with 31 students. All the participants were equipped with one tablet computer with the CCDMRI system installed to conduct the pre-tests, post-tests and the remedial instructions. The CSL in the EG practiced Chinese characters with the multiple remedial instructions. Conversely, the CG practicedChinese characters withsingle remedial instruction. According to the results of the research, there were no interaction effects by students’ culture sphere and length of study. The results revealed that the system enhanced the CSL learner’s ability to realize and to write Chinese characters, also their paper writing. Referring to the satisfaction survey, most of the questions owned high scores. Moreover, users expressed the multiple remedial instructions helped them a lot.
