Seeing teachers in the media making a positive impact and sharing their passion for learning is always uplifting. Whether you're a parent or not, there's something heartwarming about watching an educator go the extra mile to make learning fun and engaging.

We've seen teachers take part in the school's feeding scheme to support students too ashamed to admit they don't have lunch. Others have used music to create a lively and interactive classroom environment. 

This time, a teacher has taken creativity to new heights – literally. She wasn't afraid to get onto her knees and climb on top of a table to teach her learners about positional words. 

In a video shared on social media, a teacher is seen adjusting her dress before crawling under a desk and calling out, "Where is the teacher?"

At first, it looks like a game of hide-and-seek with her class, but when the children respond, "The teacher is under the table", it quickly became clear – this was a creative lesson in action.

What better way to teach positional words than by becoming the example yourself? Her hands-on approach resonated with many people, who recalled learning the same way in school. 

Others praised her passion and dedication to making learning fun and memorable.
