A Toronto Catholic District School Board religion teacher was found guilty of professional misconduct after her former students told a tribunal that she went on frequent sexually-laced tirades before demonstrating her flexibility in front of the class by putting her legs behind her head.

Leanora Brown did not appear in front of the three-person tribunal at the Ontario College of Teachers on Tuesday, but denied the allegations, including telling students about her sex life, her parents’ sex life and giving advice about what they should do in their own, in a letter to the school’s superintendent.

“I felt like she wasn’t qualified to be a teacher,” one student said before the tribunal. “That’s not something you’re supposed to say to a student in a religion class.”

According to the two students who appeared in front of the tribunal but cannot be identified due to a publication ban, Brown regularly made them feel uncomfortable in class.
