Your Students Might Be Posting About Your Struggles online

A viral post recounts the story of a foreign teacher who, faced with an unresponsive classroom, resorted to folding clothes in frustration.

Netizens chimed in with their own experiences:

  • One foreign teacher initially admired Chinese students' discipline, but their silence eventually led to depression, prompting him to leave.

  • A student, wanting to ease the awkwardness, made eye contact with the teacher—only to be called on three lessons in a row.

  • Another foreign teacher quit after four years, feeling isolated from both students and colleagues.

  • One student was praised for correctly pronouncing "the," only to realize the teacher's loneliness mirrored their own.

  • A classmate responded to every question with a random textbook sentence, making the teacher believe he was fluent.

  • A frustrated teacher once slammed the desk—only to injure himself.

  • A student wanted to participate but felt too self-conscious to break the silence.

The post highlights the emotional challenges foreign teachers face in classrooms where interaction is scarce.
