The teacher of the Odessa theater and art school was fired for giving lessons in Russian

A relative of an 82-year-old teacher from the Odessa College of Theater and Art posted a message about an unusual incident on social networks. “It would look like a joke if it hadn’t happened in my family,” the girl said annoyed.

She clarified that one of the students decided to limit his horizons to the detriment of Russian composers. He categorically refused to listen to Rachmaninoff, Tchaikovsky and others. Despite this, the professor continued to study.

In retaliation, the student complained to the college administration that the 82-year-old teacher was teaching Russian.

Despite the previous merits, the college management did not defend the retiree. He was forced to quit his job of his own free will.
