Having a teacher who'll go the extra mile is a great way to get kids engaged in their studies. That's just what Verónica Duque was trying to do when she gave her students a full-body anatomy class - dressed in a full-body anatomy suit. The 43-year-old teacher dressed for the occasion, donning an outfit that mapped out what the human body looks like under the surface. <img class="wp-image-1263176740 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2022/11/2AP6AG3-scaled.jpg" alt="" width="2560" height="1707" />[[imagecaption|| Elementary school kids working with anatomy model.

A picture of Verónica teaching in the suit went viral after her husband Michael posted it on Twitter. "Very proud of this full of ideas woman that I am lucky to have as a wife," he wrote, adding: "Today she taught anatomy to her students in a very original way. The kids went crazy!" [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/mikemoratinos/status/1206612347965587467]] In response to the amazing display, Twitter users heaped praise upon the teacher. "That's thinking out of the box wish we had more like her," one person <a href="https://twitter.com/GundogMerc/status/1209703846185963520" target="_blank" rel="noopener">replied</a>. A second <a href="https://twitter.com/irmajmerchan/status/1207422447705841664" target="_blank" rel="noopener">added</a> [translated]: "It is fortunate to have professionals of this caliber, always seeking to leave their mark on their students." Amazingly, Verónica is not the only teacher to come up with the teaching method - as it was also adopted by Dutch biology teacher Debby Heerkens back in 2015: [[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/BGqyizSmckt/]] Per <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2015/10/08/world/teacher-human-anatomy-lesson-irpt/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CNN</a>, Heerkens removed layers showing muscle and skeletal structure in the human body, as well as organs. "At first they were a little bit in shock because they thought ‘the teacher is taking off her clothes,’ until, they saw what was underneath," she told CNN. In an interview with <a href="https://www.boredpanda.com/teacher-dresses-up-human-body-anatomy-lesson/?utm_source=trello&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=organic" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bored Panda</a>, Verónica opened up about why she decided to don the unconventional teaching aid. "I’ve been teaching for 15 years now," the third-grade teacher explained, adding: "I teach natural and social science, art, as well as English and Spanish." She went on to reveal that she first saw the anatomy suit in an advert online. "I was surfing the internet when an ad of an AliExpress swimsuit popped up. Knowing how hard it is for kids this young to visualize the disposition of internal organs, I thought it was worth it giving it a try," she explained. <img class="wp-image-1263176742 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2022/11/BP6P3C-scaled.jpg" alt="" width="2560" height="1707" />[[imagecaption|| A teacher teaching students anatomy.

She revealed that she has plans to use disguises to teach history and crowns to teach grammar. "I decided long ago to use disguises for history lessons. I’m also using cardboard crowns for my students to learn grammatical categories such as nouns, adjectives, and verbs. Different grammar kingdoms, so to say," she said. "I’d like society to stop considering teachers to be lazy bureaucratic public servants. We're certainly not," the teacher added. <h6>Featured Image Credit: AF archive / Alamy</h6>
