Is it weird for students to want to be friends with their teachers? Not like outside of school, but if you have a teacher that you connect with and can talk to like a friend it shouldn’t be that bad. I guess administrators could say otherwise though.

I don’t think it’s weird at all, as long as that teacher-student divide is still there.  I enjoy having personal conversations with students.  It creates more of a bond that can help the students feel more confident in their abilities in the classroom.
