How I became a teacher in a Chinese village school with only eight kids

[@mengding92]

I am from a poor village in China and I was in the same situation as Xuanxuan in this video. My mom left my family when I was 2 years old because of poverty. And after that, she never called me (actually, there was no phone in my village in the 1990s) not to mentioning visiting me. I even don't know how she looks like although now I am 30 years old. Thanks to the love from my grandparents and some teachers during my growing up, I didn't feel that I lack love when I was a child. The KZbinr said a teacher can be a rock for those students remaining in villages, I truly understood the feeling. Thanks to my father, grandparents, and teachers, I received a good education. Also thanks Chinese government, I could study overseas with a scholarship from the government. Now I am in the last year of my Ph.D. career in the UK and will be a Dr. soon. Of course, I will return back China after graduating and contribute to the country. Really touched by the video. I love China, my motherland.

[@KevinSmith-jx4go]

M H Believe it or not, this is the real life in China. Remote areas have little to no resources to develop the economy so most of the people left their home and work in big cities as workers, leaving their children to the grandparents. The education for these children is becoming an issue because they are widely spaced in those remote areas. Without the government’s help to build schools like these to put them together, they have no chance of getting any education in their life and therefore no chance to get out. I remember reading a news report about 20-30 years ago that a reporter went to those remote areas and saw a kid about 8 years old helping his family to raise a herd of sheep. The reporter asked him what he would like to do when he grows up, he said to raise more sheep. The reporter then asked what’s next and he said to get married and then have kids. The reporter asked what he would like his children to do. He said he wants them to help him to raise the sheep. That was 20-30 years ago. They have no other choice but to stay in the circle because that’s what their families have been doing for generations.

Their parents don't divorce. One or both of them go to work in the cities, leaving them behind with grandparents or other relatives. In some households there are just siblings living together and the older siblings are the sole carers of their younger brothers/sisters. In Chinese there is now a word to call these children 留守儿童 (literally means "left-behind children"). Their wellbeing has been a long-time issue in Chinese society.

As a Chinese, I really appreciate this foreign Portugal teacher to come a long way to spend three days with these children from western China's poorest rural village though this cannot solve the fundamental problem basically. I think the only way to solve this problem is to accelerate the urbanization of these rural areas, and the government should transform money and industries to these areas to affiliate this process, but it seems it might take a quite long time to accomplish it and a generation's sacrifice is inevitable, but as socialism country, we should do much better during this transition.

I know girls who had their breasts poked by other girls as they couldnt believe that it could get that big naturally! Once when I was in Chengdu, I went to an electronics store and they had a stage set up with dancers, etc for some promotion. They called me up on stage and thew me a basketball! I started dribbling the best I could. I grew up in NJ and spent a lot of time on the courts. Point is....they see a darker skinned person and assumed I must play basketball! They were right, but it was still a very stereotypical thing to do, althogh I never experienced any malignant behavior as I often do in the USA. I can almost understand it better if they thought I was a cricket player, but..... Anyway, if those kinds of innocent ignorances dont bother you, then you would love it in China. I definitely did.

GAO KAO ,as we said ,is the most fair examination for students in CHINA which is also changed my own life. i got into college through GAO KAO and then got into another college through the master entrance examination and now i studying abroad to enrich my life experience. maybe we put too much emphasis on GAOKAO and when people heard that an examination will determine your future, you might think that is crazy and horrible.however, when one is poor and doesn't have a good family background but you still have a chance to let yourself walk out your poor village and your future may totally different from your parent, you will regard it as the hope of your life and put all your effort to fight for it. that is why education is so important in CHINA. in order to making children get educated and live a better life, many hard decisions parents will make, which leads to left behind children appeared. because of the poverty, mothers left their children. no excuses for those mothers but life sometimes just goes in this way, since life won't wave a magic wand to bring you everything you desired and what left behind chilren can do is though hard-studying to change everything.

The latter, despite all the advantage they have, they do not take the least effort to understand the people they tend to criticize without real thinking. Ironic, right? By saying "westerners", I mean to refer to a small group of people who tend to claim things that are different from their understanding as propaganda.

A glimpse into the tough life in many of China's remote villages and the children who live there. All the talk about democracy and freedom is irrelevant. What they most need is freedom from poverty, hunger, ignorance, hardship and hopelessness. Feudalism failed them. The "democracy" promised by the KMT failed them. Now the poverty alleviation programme is slowly lifting them and offering some hope. But it may be necessary to take them all out of such remote locations if they are to be helped.

可憐的小孩。他只渴望有個媽媽疼。他媽媽太狠心了。就算離婚也可以關心下個仔仔。李老師太有愛心了。感謝她為小肥肥帶來一些溫暖

This was such a moving video. Good and caring teachers can have such a positive influence on the intellectual and emotional well-being of these children. The sadness of one of the boys really touched me and I wish I could give him a hug and reassure him. ❤️ from Belgium to all the children.

I can't help but watch this video in tears 😢. Seeing this made me think how many people are privileged but still complain about their lives. These kids are willing to educate themselves no matter what obstacles they're facing🙏🏻💜.

A school with only couple students seems so much better. Less chaotic and a lot calmer...

I can't stop tears!!! Wonderful teacher ❤️❤️❤️

This woman is precious~

I pray especially with those kids whose parents are away from them to have the strength to continue with their lives, that they won’t stop studying and pursue their dreams of a better future someday .

These teachers are doing the education work for the last generation of poor people, which is very ordinary but great.

Liane is great girl. The children will never forget the days you spend with them. No response is truer than their tears and their hugs. Thank you very very much.
