As the first educator in the history of China, Confucius opened the first private school, initiated mass education and advocated teaching students in accordance with their aptitude. Anyone who wants to learn can go to Confucius to study, and Confucius will impart knowledge to him.

This is the greatness of Confucius. He gave ordinary people the opportunity to receive education, so that they were no longer ignorant and had the opportunity to change their destiny. And Confucius has no distinction between teaching and learning. In his eyes, there is no distinction between high and low. As long as he is willing to learn, he will teach seriously.

Confucius' greatest contribution to China people is ideological enlightenment. He not only taught his disciples to read and write, but also explained the basic laws of the world in detail, so that his disciples could know what the world was like and how to live.

Confucius' early experience:

In the twenty-fourth year of Duke Xiang of Lu (549 BC), when Confucius was three years old, Shu died of illness and was buried in defense. After the death of Shu, Yan Zhizhai lost his asylum and was chased by Shu's wife Shi, so he took his younger brothers Meng Pi and Confucius to Qufu Que and lived a poor life.

In the fifth year of Lu (537 BC), Confucius became more and more famous and realized that he should study hard to be a man and live, so he said that although he was fifteen years old, his ambition was to study.

In the seventh year of Lu (535 BC), Yan Zhizai, the mother of Confucius, died. This year, Ji's family gave a banquet to entertain the first-class aristocrats. Confucius went to the banquet, but yang hu, the minister of Ji's family, turned him away.

In the ninth year of Emperor Lu Zhaodi (533 BC), Confucius was nineteen years old. In order to return to his ancestral home in the Song Dynasty and pay homage to his ancestors, he married the daughter of an official in the Song Dynasty.
