Online Instruction Grows in Popularity
Zheng Anke, who earns up to 3. 6 million yuan annually through her English classes on WeChat, China’s most popular instant messaging app, provides a case in point.
Zheng, in her early 30s, organized 10 WeChat groups with 120 students each and charges each student 3,000 yuan a year. She once worked for New Oriental Education, China’s biggest English-training school, but now runs her own business.
"I compile my own English learning materials, which I send to the students every week," said Zheng, who has two assistants to help her keep in touch with all of the students as they also receive weekly feedback on their pronunciation.
After-school instruction has long been popular among parents with big hopes for their children’s academic achievements, so the growing popularity of online teaching is not surprising.
High earnings have caught the public’s attention. One screenshot, which went viral on WeChat, drawing netizen criticism, showed a physics teacher who charged each of his 2 ,617 students 9 yuan for a single class. He earned 18,842 yuan for an hour’s instruction after sharing 20 percent of the tuition with an online educational agency.
Yang Jie, a government worker in Jiangsu Province, said distance learning has many advantages compared with traditional educational agencies, including cheaper fees, repeated opportunities to review the teachers’ instruction and the ability to attend classes when it’s convenient.
Yang also appreciated the ability to choose instructors.
"I can choose the teachers I like freely on the Internet," Yang said. "I’ll continue to attend their classes if they turn out to be humorous and their classes are well prepared. "

答案
Traditional Classroom Learning or Online Learning?
Recently, several teachers have succeeded in raking in huge profits out of organizing online classes, which, with their obvious advantages such as the convenience for learners and cheaper tuition fees, cater to the call for after-school instruction. While their high earnings have provoked fierce criticism from some of the conservative public, I fully support this up-to-date online education for two main reasons.
Firstly, online education is student-friendly in its both inexpensive and convenient way of service. Compared with the traditional class whose tuition fees can soar to 200 yuan for a single tutoring class, one online class charges much lower instead. Furthermore, course applicants can attend classes at any fragmented time, at any accessible place and study at their own pace. Secondly, online education is teacher-friendly. While the traditional curriculum has a stodgy control over teachers’ choice of textbooks and teaching contents, teachers of online education can either choose and compile teaching materials according to the students’ needs in avoidance of uniformity in students from "streamlined education", or they can try innovative teaching ways. Sometimes they can even introduce a few gimmicks which are totally denied in the traditional classrooms to attract students. More encouragingly, teachers who are well-acclaimed for their mastery of teaching can earn a decent salary in return for their efforts.
To sum up, online education not only brings cheaper tuition fees and better education for a student, but also provides more freedom and a richer life for a teacher. There is no doubt that the new form of education will continue to benefit both the teachers and the students.
