Extended data:
1978, I failed in the college entrance examination and scored only 33 points in English. Yu's mother is not reconciled. After learning that there was a shortage of English teachers in a local junior high school, she tried her best to find Yu as a substitute English teacher in order to earn some income and prepare for the exam.
1979, failed in the second college entrance examination, and scored 55 points in this English test. After failing twice, I decided to give up. However, Yu's mother heard that the county government has run a cram school for college entrance examination, and she is looking for a relationship to let Yu attend this cram school. My original goal was to be admitted to Jiangsu Local Teachers' College, but my grades soared during the college entrance examination, so I applied for Peking University.
1993165438+10. In October, I chose to give up teaching and set up New Oriental School, and set up English schools and other learning centers in 34 cities. Yu founded New Oriental because he failed to get a scholarship from an American university. In order to raise enough money to study in the United States, Yu found an amateur language tutor to teach English in Peking University.
