Thank you for your beautiful words very much! Yeah, since I find native-speaking English teacher's videos for free on Youtube via VPN, it seems I have just entered a huge treasure trove. So I say that I've been sucked into a brand-new and secret world through a wormhole. God, if the so-called "wormhole" really exists, it should be as precious and important as VPN. Just as one of my favorite Youtube English teachers wrote in his blog "About China" : The only way you can get around the Great Firewall is by using a VPN. Those three letters will become more important to you than oxygen. The problem though, is that even the best VPNs offer dismal results. (He is a Canadian and once taught English in China for a year and a half.)
Maybe very few people can imagine the horrible information blockade. Being a person from the country known for not only the Great Wall in ancient time but also the Great Firewall in modern time, no one else than me knows how most of common Chinese have not any chance to see the outside world, let alone learn English from the foreigner teachers, which is just a privilege only for wealthy Chinese in select society. (Of course, a lot of foreigners are also ignorant about China, even failing to realize the existence of the Great Firewall in China and VPN is hard to come by.)That being so, I absolutely have no reason not to cherish this great VPN opportunity and take advantage of this free native English-teaching resource.
Interestingly, many times I feel I'm just like a small sponge being thrown into a tremendous English sea. Oh, too much sea water (copious amounts of teaching videos)...I have no choice but to keep on absorbing water...I wish I could be an avid English learner, as "greedy" as possible! Pitifully, I have no way to follow and learn from so many native-speaking English teachers on Youtube, and I even often can't catch up with the updated videos from the teachers I've followed. (One Youtube teacher I followed can even issue no less than 4 videos per day).
On the other hand, the truth is that a lot of Chinese schools must pay money to sponsors who can help them seek white native-speaking English teachers from developed countries due to the rarity in Chinese market, which is really a sharp contrast/irony.
