Although none of the speculations have been confirmed, netizens feel that the video should be a reminder to be kind and respectful toward everyone regardless of their jobs
It is not easy to become a polyglot and, what's more, to be able to teach others foreign languages in a simple manner, making it easier for them to understand. This woman proved that she can!
Many netizens agreed that she is the reason why we should not judge a book by its cover.
An Instagram user commented on the video, "Don't disrespect other people's jobs. We never know their capabilities. The most important thing is to respect each other. This woman is amazing."
