Hi, before I start can I just say that I love your blog! I was just wondering if you’ve ever had a really close bond with a student to the point that when they’ve graduated you actually miss them a lot? I left school about 3 months ago and I was ridiculously close to one of my teachers and I miss her like I’d miss a friend and I was wondering if teachers felt the same back?

I can’t say I’ve experienced what you’re saying.  That is not to say that I don’t miss students when they leave.  It would be different for each individual teacher and then student they have worked with.

I also haven’t had the opportunity yet to work in a school for more than a year, so I am used to leaving every student at the end of a semester or year.  I have become used to the feeling, I suppose.
