Whats the difference between Confucius and Socrates

Confucius would often enlighten his students by his answers to their questions. Occasionally he would stimulate their thinking by asking open-ended questions so they could discuss with each other various individuals' answers. Socrates, on the other hand, rarely asked open-ended questions, and unless requested to do so did not really prefer to have to answer questions put to him. His chief method, of course, was to ask a series of questions in such as way as to thoroughly test the person's knowledge of the subject. In this way he did not have to preach or lecture, but could examine the person's awareness itself. This gave the answerer freedom of choice and enabled him to be active rather than passive in the discussion, although it is not as free and active as open-ended questioning. Yet Socrates could work very specifically on clarifying the person's responses. This philosophical midwifery was designed to assist the person in bringing forth their own understanding and knowledge. If their understanding was not clear and organized in their mind, this process of testing would reveal the errors to them. In the refutation and dialectical methods Socrates surpasses Confucius in his ability to reason. Confucius seemed to rely almost exclusively on his intuition. However, most of his intuitions were so perceptive that they proved to be accurate and/workable for many people
