Teacher Fidan, after receiving criticism for the videos she previously shared, has now come into the spotlight with her vacation in Phuket Island. The teacher, who shared a pose sitting on the trunk of an elephant, faced reactions on social media with comments like "good career management" and "disgraced her profession."

A few years ago, Teacher Fidan, who was teaching at a private tutoring center and became the target of criticism for the videos she shared, is now enjoying her vacation on Phuket Island.

In response to a post shared by Teacher Fidan, where she posed sitting on an elephant's trunk, comments such as "Good career management," "My dream career advancement," "At least there should be respect for the doctorate one has earned," "She has trampled on the teaching profession," and "Let her not tarnish my beautiful profession, whatever she does" were made.

REGULATIONS ON DRESS CODE FOR TEACHERS

On the other hand, there had been a new regulation regarding the clothing teachers would wear at schools. Minister Yusuf Tekin had prohibited teachers from coming to school in leggings, jeans, t-shirts, mini skirts, baggy pants, or with long beards. In his statement, Minister Tekin said, "School is the place of the teacher. Representing that position and being a good example is a requirement of the teaching profession. A teacher does not only teach lessons; they also give lessons through their demeanor. Educational institutions should be exemplary in every aspect."
