Today is Teacher's Day in China

Today is Teacher's Day in China.

"Affection and respect for teachers, whom some have called "engineers of human souls", have continued to dominate this year's Teachers' Day - officially created in 1985 to improve teachers' social status and call on the entire nation to respect teachers and to seek knowledge, reports China View.

"As primary and secondary school children write down their heartfelt thanks on greeting cards for their beloved teachers, many grown-ups also send special greetings to their former teachers on this particular day via phone calls, emails or short SMS messages".
