It’s 2024 now and Nong Jiagui is 58 years old. He is a village teacher in Guangnan county, Yunnan province. He was named one of the 2024 National Role Models for Teaching and Educating People. Let’s read about his story.

    In 1986, Nong Jiagui came to the “leprosy (麻风病) village”. It was a treatment (治疗) center for people with leprosy in the 1950s. He was the first teacher in this village. When he first arrived at the village, he wanted to run away. But he didn’t because he saw the sad faces of the old people. He also knew that kids there really wanted to learn. He decided to teach the children well. He also wanted to help them get out of the village to see the bigger world.

    After Nong came, all school-age children could go to school. And the village has become more open to the outside world. Nong named the village Luosongdi. “As long as one child in the village needs me, I will keep on teaching,” Nong said.
