A South African student recently went viral after proposing marriage to his teacher in front of his classmates.

The incident, captured in a TikTok video, shows the student kneeling and presenting a ring while asking for her hand in marriage.

However, the teacher quickly walks away, returning to her desk without accepting the proposal.

The student, seemingly undeterred, attempts to persuade her further, but she firmly declines.

She instructs him to return to his seat, emphasizing her rejection.

As the video spreads online, viewers are expressing a mix of surprise and concern in the comment section.
