The teacher from San Diego has been creatively connecting with students on TikTok since the start of the pandemic. According to The San Diego Union-Tribune, the 30-year-old private school educator had put off engaging with students outside of the classroom because of the harm that social media can bring.
But once schools closed in 2020, he gave in and created a TikTok count with hilarious comedy and dances. Now, two years later, he has 2.4 million followers who love his wholesome content.

McClintock’s video showed the genuine love he has for his students. “If you’re one of my students reading this, it meant the world to us,” he captioned the video on TikTok. “We love you and we’ll see you when we’re back from the honeymoon!”
The students made the special stop at their teacher’s wedding on the way to their own homecoming dance, and their outfits fit right in. Viewers of the viral video all recognize just how important McClintock must be to his students if they made such a grand gesture like “crashing” his wedding.
“My students mean the world to me and I was excited they all showed up and celebrated that moment with us 🥺” McClintock affirms.
