Question

Hello, I wanted to ask if there are issues of seclusion in a music lesson for an 11-year-old child with a female teacher and if there are solutions for this. Thank you very much

Answer

Hello 

There can definitely be an issue of seclusion. 

A woman is prohibited from being secluded with a child from the age of 9 and above. 

It is necessary to ensure that the teacher's husband is in the city, or that people enter the house during the lesson.
