A Primary School teacher’s vacation activities came back to haunt her.
The 24-year-old American teacher was on vacation in Mexico and entered a twerking contest, in a bikini, at her friend’s urging.
The primary school teacher won the twerking competition but lost her job. While she was dancing in the competition somebody was taking a video that was uploaded online.
The video went viral and somebody recognized her. Another person then uploaded pictures of the teacher with her students.
The teacher, simply identified as Miss Clarissa was then fired from her job after parents of her students saw the video and complained to the Cumbre del Noroeste Institute school.
According to the Daily Mail, the young teacher queried the reasoning behind her dismissal, saying that the video was taken during her ‘free time’ and she wasn’t doing anything wrong.
"It was a dance competition, something like this doesn't define me as a person, it was my free time and we're in the 21st century,” the media outlet quotes the young teacher as saying.
"It's not something to be afraid of, I'm not naked, I'm not having sex or taking drugs or disrespecting anyone," she said.
