Xiao Xia, an Air China flight attendant(空乘), has spent more than two months teaching English to primary school students in Jiangkou village in Guangxi. Full of passion at the beginning of her teaching, Xiao quickly found out some of the students didn't always follow her words. She shared her passion for her job with them and told them of her experiences as a flight attendant to make them interested and encourage them to learn. "Students are interested in my job and sometimes ask where I have been as a flight attendant. I tell them my work has taken me around the world," she said.
"One time, they asked me whether I had been to the United States or Europe. I said 'yes', but they didn't believe me until I showed them photos. They were very surprised and looked at me with admiration." Xiao said she took that moment to tell them that if they studied hard in class, they will one day get the chance to leave the village and see the world.
The English teaching program at Jiangkou Primary School started in 2017. Li Chao, the school headmaster, said before the program started, the school did not have any English teachers, but other teachers at the school gave some English lessons. However, since the program started, the students’ English has greatly improved.
