Meet Sackey Percy - Ghana's dancing teacher

A teacher in Obo-Kwaku, in the Eastern region of Ghana has gone viral after the world learnt about his teaching style- Dancing with his students.

BBC Africa News shared a video of one Sackey Percy, a basic school teacher who uses dancing to communicate with his students.

According to Mr Percy, dancing, aside revealing hidden talents in his students, also makes it easier for his students to freely share their problems with him, making it easier for him to help solve them.

“The unique thing I am doing now is dance with my kids to improve their confidence during class hours. As I implement the dance they feel free to tell me whatever is bothering them.”

Mr Sackey who has gained lots of followers on social media as a result of the video says whenever he is done with lessons and he asks questions, the children are able to answer because they see him as one of them.

According to him, there are a lot of talents in his class-those who can sing, act and dance, and by his unique method each child is able to build on his/her talent
