Renowned Hong Kong actor Daniel Wu, now 50, has ventured into the field of education by launching an English teaching account on popular Chinese social media platforms such as Douyin and Xiaohongshu. His exclusive spoken English course has quickly garnered significant attention and sparked discussions online.
Priced at RMB 398, the course includes 84 lessons, each lasting approximately 8 to 10 minutes. Promoted as a program to "master English in 30 days with ease," the course is designed for learners of all ages.
In his account bio, Daniel Wu revealed that he is a co-founder of "Grace Lore", the company behind the course. The curriculum features over 1,000 practical daily English phrases, aiming to improve students' conversational skills. Additionally, Wu integrates current cultural trends into his teaching materials. For example, he recently recorded a video explaining how to translate iconic lines from the popular Chinese film Ne Zha 2 into English.
According to feedback from participants, the course primarily consists of vertical videos personally recorded by Wu. The program also includes expert explanations of key language points and features an AI-assisted practice module. While the AI voice differs slightly from Wu's, users praised the interactive experience as engaging and innovative, making it easier to stay committed to completing the lessons.
Wu's entry into English teaching has ignited a buzz among fans and netizens, many of whom admire his native English fluency and have humorously labeled him "the most handsome English teacher." Some joked about struggling to stay focused during the lessons, while others playfully requested personalized one-on-one tutoring sessions.
