This post translates a critique of the current Chinese exam-oriented education system in favour of a more moral and ethics-based education style by comparing how an American teacher (in the Chinese imagination) would teach Cinderella to how a Chinese teacher would teach Cinderella. The Chinese teacher rings true for the Chinese readers (also translated). It’s interesting to see a Chinese critique of their own education system, and to see how they imagine the American teacher, who actually comes across more as an ‘American teacher with Chinese characteristics’ (or maybe the other other way around). I suspect the “American teacher” is just supposed to be a medium to express the author’s preferred Chinese teaching style, rather than an actual American. Anyway, it’s interesting.
