Einstein lookalike university professor becomes surprise Internet hit

A 68-year-old foreign professor who has taught in China for more than 3 years has become popular on the Internet for looking exactly like Albert Einstein.

His humorous, outgoing and cheerful personality makes him popular among his students and he said he too accepts the resemblance to Einstein, but had been highly surprised to discover how popular he had become online.

He says he has a very happy life in China and hopes that more students will come to like him and recognize his teaching work. He thinks that his teaching guidance is second to students' self-study and students can choose their own learning methods. (Xinhua/Song Weiwei)
