Abstract

Confucius is a great educator in the history of education of the Chinese nation. He is known as the "teacher of all ages". The thought of "teaching without classification" is an important part of Confucius’ educational thought system and has great significance in the history of China’s educational development: it is the origin of the modern idea of equal right to education; it is the germination of lifelong education theory not to choose the object of education by age; it is the educational manifestation of Confucius’ thought of "benevolence" and reflects the humanistic care of education. Many educational concepts of modern education are closely related to Confucius’ thought of "teaching without classification". By studying Confucius’ thought of "teaching without classification", we can inspire modern teachers to change their educational concepts and improve their professional quality in education and teaching, respect students’ personality and develop a responsible attitude, recognize students’ differences and pay attention to teaching students in accordance with their aptitude.
