Confucius was born in the Spring and Autumn Period in Shandong Province. During this period, education was only available to children from rich families. After experiencing different government positions, Confucius quickly became famous as a great educator. He spent all his life educating others. He built private schools that allowed students of all social classes (等级) to come. He had about 3,000 students in his lifetime. Confucius believed in the importance of education and thought there should be no difference between people.
Confucius is often called “the teacher of all ages”.Teachers in ancient China were also treated with great respect. In ancient China, many families looked for a teacher to help prepare for the Imperial Examinations (科举考试), an exam that made sure successful men adults got a respected government position. Parents often sent invitation letters to certain teachers, who would make the decision to accept the invitation or refuse it. Once inside the classroom, teachers were treated with the greatest respect by students.
