中國互聯網教育受歡迎 催生新職業'網師'

China's live streaming boom has not only swept the entertainment industry but also contributed to the online education field, with top online teachers enjoying an annual income of over one million yuan.

中國的在線直播熱潮不僅橫掃娛樂產業，還推動了在線教育領域的發展，頂級在線教師年收入超過100萬元。

Dubbed "iTeachers", these teachers have become known as "intellectual online celebrities."

這些教師被稱作“網師”，即所謂的“知識網紅”。

Though personal incomes vary between individuals, iTeachers are commonly better paid than their counterparts in regular schools. They share their lessons online and set their prices themselves.

雖然個體之間收入存在差異，但網師的收入普遍高於傳統學校的教師。他們在網上分享自己的課程，自行定價。

Online courses cover a wide range of topics, including foreign languages, math, literature, science, painting, music and cooking.

在線課程的主題五花八門，包括外語、數學、文學、科學、繪畫、音樂和烹飪等。

Training for the civil service entrance exam, postgraduate qualification exam and even marathon preparation are also available.

公務員考試、研究生入學考試甚至備跑馬拉松相關的培訓也能在網上找到。

In the past, online education involved a teacher uploading a lesson. Now iTeachers are more likely to broadcast their lessons to achieve better class interaction.

過去，在線教育是以教師上傳課件的方式進行。如今網師們更傾向於直播授課，以達到更好的課堂互動。

Teachers and students are now able to hear and see each other. They can write on a shared "blackboard" and students might even "raise hands" to ask questions.

教師和學生可以看見對方、聽見對方說話，可以在共享的“黑板”上寫字，學生甚至能“舉手”提問。

China's online education industry is predicted to continue to grow in the next three years and may hit a market value of 371.8 billion yuan in 2019, according to Chinese think tank Analysys.

國內智庫易觀國際表示，預計未來三年中國的在線教育產業將繼續增長，到2019年其市場交易規模或達到3718億元。
