He preached by words, built Stone Gateway Primary School, and was the first people who carried out bilingual teaching in ethnic areas. By implementing coeducation, setting up science curriculum, and paying attention to the combination of cultivation of high-level talents with civilian literacy education, he cultivated students＇ subject and na- tional consciousness. His educational practice in Miao shows his educational spirit and glorious human nature, and his thought and practice still has important reference value for the education in ethnic areas.
