Low tuition is another attraction. In first-tier cities such as Beijing and Shanghai, commercial training institutions often charge as much as over 200 yuan ($27.62) for a yoga class and over 500 yuan for a personal training course. In contrast, many youngsters opt to invest their time in night classes, most of which cost less than 100 yuan per hour on average.

Night schools seem to provide opportunities for youngsters to increase their professional skills. "AI application is an inevitable trend. Only by continuous learning can we stay in tune with the latest job requirements and overcome anxiety," said Zhuang Anyu, a student of ChatGPT course launched by the night school at Suzhou University.

"I don't care whether the night school certificate is useful or not. Learning something is definitely better than scrolling through an endless number of short videos at home," said Zhuang.
