The invention relates to the technical field of communication, and especially relates to a method and an apparatus for correcting the physique posture in the remote teaching process. The method of the invention comprises the following steps: acquiring physique posture characteristic data of a current target object through a first image capture device; comparing the physique posture characteristic data with standard physique data and calculating the deviation value; and when the deviation value is greater than a preset threshold, outputting the result of comparison to remind the current target object to correct the physique posture. The invention provides a method for correcting physique posture by acquiring physique posture characteristic data through the first image capture device, and aims to solve the problem that some standardized actions made by a target object are neither standardized nor accurate and correct non-standardized sitting postures. In addition, in order to protect the personal vision health, a screen can be turned off when a person is close to the screen under the help of the image capture device, a more user-friendly design is provided, and the user experience is improved.
