To find new music teacher a bit unprofessional

DD is having piano lessons on zoom in the evenings and has just started with a new teacher. It was her second lesson this evening. Teacher seems really lovely and DD likes her but tonight I overheard her making a comment about not having enough vodka in her coke which she was drinking whilst teaching DD. Later on I looked her up on social media and she just doesn’t seem like a professional piano teacher in my opinion. She’s more like a party animal and posts lots of memes with bad language and general inappropriate material in my opinion.

I honestly don’t really care what people do- each to their own but I think if you work with children maybe you should tone down the antics on social media? Or do people just not care these days? Would this bother you if your child was being taught by someone you felt behaved inappropriately on SM?

I assume this is a private tutor not a school teacher?

Please unclench, drop the pearls and pull those knickers out of your bum!

In YOUR opinion pictures are inappropriate. In YOUR opinion they are sexually provocative.
In YOUR opinion the language in offensive.

How about they are just pictures of a young woman enjoying herself
How about not everyone thinks swearing is bad.
How about she was having a joke with your DD as maybe her playing was bad on a piece and she said there is definitely not enough vodka in this coke while she is drinking JUST COKE.

If she is a good piano teacher and your DD likes her and is learning a lot then that’s the most important thing. It’s not like they even get to be in the same room.

Tell me OP do you think this teacher is planning on leading your DD to Gomorrah?
