The US-China PodcastPeter Hessler on China’s Evolving Education SystemIn 1996, when Peter Hessler first went to China to teach, almost all of his students were first-generation college students. Most came from large rural families, and their parents, subsistence farmers, could offer little guidance as their children entered a new world. By 2019, when Mr. Hessler arrived at Sichuan University, he found a very different China, as well as a new kind of student – an only child whose schooling was the object of intense focus from a much more ambitious cohort of parents. China’s education system offers a means of examining the country’s past, present, and future. A...2024-08-2831 min

In the debut episode of The Bad Chinese Teacher Podcast, we look at Chinese-American journalist Lenora Chu’s book Little Soldiers and how traditional Chinese methods of classroom instruction inform Mandarin language teaching outside of China today. Why do some native-speaker Chinese teachers struggle in Western classroms? Should Western cultures learn to be okay with allowing students to “suffer” while learning? Why does Chinese education emphasize obedience so much? How do we help struggling students “fight through the suck” of learning Chinese, and what does the discipline of practice have to do with...2019-10-281h 05
