This is a PROBLEM. This SHOULD NOT be happening AT ALL. End all contact with her. You should not be texting. This teacher needs to maintain professional boundaries, and is not doing so. This is 100% inappropriate.

So I’m really close with one my teachers, like she texted me when my favorite band was on tv, and we talk about her husband and her relationship and everything. I want to stay in contact after school, but is it going to be weird? I haven’t had her in class for a year and we’re still close, but what happens when I graduate at the end of this year?

what’s the best way to make sure something is correct without embarrassing/annoying the teacher? I asked a question to a teacher and he was saying the opposite and I was like ‘are you sure??’ but I didn’t want to take it further and make a scene though afterwards I googled it, checked in the textbook and saw that he was wrong. And it feels like I’m undermining their authority which I’m really not setting out to do. Thank you in advance for your advice :)
I would just talk to your teacher privately saying that you were interested and researched further into the topic, and found contrasting information. Explain that you’re seeking clarification. Hope this helps!

The thing I hate most for teachers is when the class complains about something yet it isn’t in the teachers control. I remember in Algebra we were doing a problem, and there were 2 ways to do it. Naturally we chose the easiest way. Our teacher explained to us that it was fine but we had to do it the harder way. The class got really mad. He explained that it was in the district rules & he had to teach it a certain way or get fired.
Yes, this can be unfortunate at times. For the most part, my governmental curriculum doesn’t have strict ways as you suggest, or from what I am aware of with Common Core in the USA.

How do you become a teacher?
That depends on where you are from. Look into university programs.

Hi! I’m not American, so please forgive me for any English mistakes. Anyway, I am a psychology student and I’ve previously thought about a career in teaching. My mom is a teacher and thinks this is a bad idea (she’s tired of it) but I taught adults in different situations (mostly volunteer work) and enjoyed it. I am worried about teenagers, though. Uneducated adults WANT to learn, and that’s what made the job great for me. Would you recommend a career as a teacher to someone like myself? Thanks!
Teaching is a fantastic career, but it’s not for everyone. I do not know you whatsoever, so I cannot tell you if it is right for you. If you enjoy it, then go for it. I taught high school to adults for two years and loved it. I had a mix of students who did want to learn and those who were just there to receive a welfare cheque, but it was very rewarding no matter what. You need to reflect on what you want to do, research how you would get there in your area, what job opportunities are available when you graduate, etc. Good luck!
