A male teacher has sparked a huge controversy on social media with a video of his female students loosening his braids in class.
The science teacher, identified as @thilluminator on Instagram, took to his page to share the video of his students unbraiding his hair, sparking a heated debate online.
In the trending clip, the man was sitting at his desk and working on a laptop while the young ladies took down his braids inside the classroom.
He captioned the post,
“Students don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care. Teaching is a work of heart. Comment your thoughts.”
As expected, the video has stirred mixed reactions online, with many criticizing him for making his students unbraid his hair in school of all places, while others didn’t have a problem with it.
