A viral video shows a teacher livestreaming a class on TikTok and refusing to end a student’s punishment until viewers sent her 10 virtual roses, which they did and then the student was released, sparking online criticism about professionalism and mixing discipline with social media gifts.
A teacher sparked outrage online by livestreaming class on TikTok, demanding 10 virtual “roses” (paid gifts) before freeing a kneeling student. The clip, shared by @AsakyGRN on X, showed him teaching while punishing a student.
He said, “That’s your brother kneeling. But if you send 10 roses, I’ll let him go.” Viewers complied, and the student was released. Many criticized mixing discipline with social media monetization.
Critics slammed him: “This one na content creator first, teacher later.” Others questioned, “Education don turn livestream?” The debate rages: creativity or crossing the line?
As teachers join TikTok for income, boundaries blur. Some argue visibility helps; others say classrooms aren’t stages.
The incident highlights social media’s impact on education. Should teachers profit from students’ punishment?
