Michela Roth, 38-year old Nursery teacher at Castello di Serravalle near Bologna (Italy), caused an uproar in the community after pictures of her were revealed showing her stripping for a glamor calendar. She is an American-born who has been living in Italy for the last 10 years.
She said: 'For me being a model is my second job. I do shoots when school is over and especially in the holidays when I am back in the United States. I am always dressed in the pictures and never naked.
'Maybe I could have been a model but I just love being a teacher. I think there is a little bit of envy going on here and it has gone over the top - there are also mums who tell me that their children can't wait to see me in the morning.'
Miss Roth found herself in the spotlight after posing for a Harley Davidson calendar and after news leaked out furious parents began pulling their children out of the school with one telling the local newspaper: 'She is too attractive and I don't want her teaching my son.
