He's 26-year-old and originally from Brescia.
When a
student posted an image of heartthrob maths teacher Pietro Boselli on a
social media site, it sparked an internet frenzy in the weeks that
followed.
The handsome Italian model with a PhD was widely celebrated for being the perfect mix of beauty and brains.
Boselli, who has been modelling since he
was six years old, originally tried to keep his modelling a secret from
his colleagues at the University College London (UCL) where he taught
for fear they might 'look down on him'.
In an interview with The Times earlier
this month, the advanced maths lecturer, said that when he was trying
to establish himself as a teacher, he didn't want to include his work
for fashion companies such as Abercrombie and Fitch on his CV and was
less than proud of his alternative career.
He
added that he didn't want students in his classroom or his teaching
peers to know, saying: 'I think, in a way, I was ashamed. I thought
people in academia would look down on me.'
We want a teacher like him so badly :(
