Mr Xu believes it is a teacher'sresponsibility 'to carry on teaching as long as there is just one student'.

徐泽峰认为，就算只有一名学生，老师仍有教学的责任。

Mr Xu started teaching in Youcheng PrimarySchool since 1982. He had witnessed some glorious times in the 90s where therewere over 100 students and nine teachers in the school that is hidden deep inTaihang Mountain, reported Henan Business Daily.

As urban renewal plans escalated and newschools built in the town centre down the hill, parents from the villagestarted sending their children to the town to receive better education.

Most of them left but the 11-year-oldJiaqi chose to stay.

Jiaqi is one of China's nine millionleft-alone children. His mother abandoned him when he was a baby and his fatherwent to work in another city.

据中国《河南商报》报道，徐先生从1982年就开始在油城小学任教，亲眼目睹这座太行山深处学校的兴衰。这所小学90年代辉煌时期，曾有100多名学生以及9名老师。

随着城区周边升级改造，镇里山坡上新建了一处新学校。乡里的父母开始把孩子往真理送，以便接受到更好的教育。

大多数孩子都离开了，但11岁的佳琪选择留下来。

佳琪是中国九百万名留守儿童之一。当他还是个婴儿时，母亲就遗弃了他，而父亲则在另一个城市打工。
