Recruiters favoring teachers from free education courses

College students who receive free education in return for committing to teaching have become favorites of schools for their good academic performance.

"All our students who enjoy free education receive more lessons than other students, to make them better-qualified and improve grassroots education," said Zhao Fuchen, director in charge of student internships at Hebei Normal University.

In addition to studying regular courses in their majors, these students take extra classes, including handwriting, writing and other necessary skills for rural schools, which may call upon them to teach a large number of classes.
