Charlotte Dial is a 1st grade teacher at Success Academy Charter School in Brooklyn.

Charlotte is a "model teacher" meaning teachers who are training observe her to learn.

In October 2014, a teaching assistant surreptitiously recorded Charlotte tearing up a girl's paper because she answered a question wrong.

The video was featured in The New York Times and Charlotte was suspended for a week before returning to teaching.

Critics of Charlotte think the suspension was not an adequate punishment.
