An ordinary teacher named Pan Shanji has moved China by devoting the past 34 years as an educator who has been his knowledge to children with few other for schooling. Pan Shanji has about 200 students over his 34-year teaching , and although not one of them it to college, he is very proud of all of them. "My students are the first group of people from three local villages who have dared to leave the mountains to look for jobs," Pan, 53, says .
Pan, a member of the Mulam ethnic group(么佬族), is the only teacher for 12 students from 6 to 9 years old in the mountainous Dayandong village of the Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region. He teaches many subjects, Chinese, math, sports, painting and music.
As far as the three villages are concerned, they are the most in Guzhai town. In the 1940s, their ancestors to the mountains to avoid the Japanese invasion(侵略) and there. The average annual income per family is less than 1,000 yuan ($159). They plant some crops on the farmland in valleys and a self-sufficient life.
Pan is the first high school in Dayandong village, which makes him feel for helping the illiterate villagers.
"I have four younger sisters who their only chance of schooling for me. My father lost his chance to the army because of illiteracy(文盲) in the 1950s. In the early 1970s, when he worked as a temporary worker at a local railway construction site, he often cried at night , because he missed home but could not home for three years and he was too shy to ask for help. So I tried my best at school and realized that writing is for us."
Pan told the media that he will stay in the village and do he can to help the children because they are the future of the village.

Perhaps the most interesting person I have ever met in my life is an Italian professor of philosophy who teaches at the University of Pisa. I last met this man eight years ago, I have not forgotten his qualities. First of all, I respected his to teaching. Because his lectures were always well- prepared and clearly delivered, students crowded into his classroom. His followers liked the fact that he what he taught. Furthermore, he could be counted on to explain his ideas in an way, introducing such aids to as oil paintings, music, and guest lecturers. Once he sang a song in class in order to make a point clear. ，I admired the fact that he would talk to students outside the classroom or talk with them the telephone. Drinking coffee in the cafe, he would easily make friends with students. Sometimes he would a student to a game of chess. ，he would join student groups to discuss a variety of ： agriculture, diving, mathematics and so on. Many young people visited him in his office for on their studies；others came to his home for social evenings. Finally, I was by his lively sense of humour. He believed that no lesson is a success ，during it, the students and the professor at least one loud . Through his sense of humour, he made learning more and more lasting. If it is that life makes a wise man smile and a foolish man cry， the professor is indeed a wise man.
