At the investigation agency, Nam confessed that since 2014, he had been sexually abusing female students who were boarding at the school. Taking advantage of school hours or evenings when the students were at the boarding school, Nam would buy candy or snacks to lure the students into his security room and commit lewd acts.

The incident took place over a long period of time, but it wasn't until early March 2016, when some students were afraid to go to school, that their families and the school discovered it.

3. The teacher put his hand under the female student's armpit to... teach the lesson.

In March 2016, a photo of a male teacher putting his hand under the armpit of a 14-year-old female student while teaching English at her home appeared on social media. The teacher in the photo was identified as Mr. Phan Van Quang, a Physics teacher at Nguyen Trai Secondary School (Chau Doc City, An Giang).

Explaining his actions, the teacher who has taught for 15 years at Nguyen Trai Secondary School said that his job in class was to help his wife correct students' papers.

According to this teacher, the act of pointing at a student by putting his hand under his armpit is “more convenient” than pointing at the student from the opposite side, which could cause him to miss them. Teacher T said the same thing happened to many other students.
