Cheng Feng is a teacher. However, to many of her students, the 33-year-old is more than that. Cheng’s care for her students has extended(延伸) beyond the classroom and makes her “a mother” to them all.
Over the past ten years, Cheng has gone into the mountains and worked in several poor schools in Poyang to help village children.
Right after graduation in 2011, Cheng became a teacher at Tutang Primary School in Youcheng township of Poyang. Over the following four years, she did well at her job there. However, when Cheng found out that Beitang Primary School, which was far away from her home, was on going to close due to a lack of teachers, she decided to give up her life at Tutang Primary School and do something.
After arriving there, she learned that because of the poor educational conditions, many local parents had sent their children to schools further away. Cheng tried her best to encourage 17 students to return. She called upon her college classmates to offer a helping hand. To make the students’ life more colorful, Cheng offered to learn music, sports and art courses online and then taught the students. She also set up an open campus day and invited parents to sit in on classes every Tuesday to rebuild their confidence in the school. As things got well at Beitang Primary School, Cheng went to Siwanghu Primary School...
Tan Zhifeng, Cheng’s husband, had been supportive of Cheng’s choice, and has also served as a rural teacher in Poyang over the years.
