In Anton Chekhov's story, "The Beggar", the character named Lushkoff was the ‘pseudo teacher’.
- Lushkoff portrays a frail character who used to lie to gain sympathy and beg for money from people.
- He was called the 'pseudo teacher' because once he came across Sergei who was an advocate by profession and lied to him about being a teacher. In order to evoke sympathy, he also pretends that he lost the job.
