I recently graduated – would it be weird if i sent my art history teacher an email about how much i enjoyed being in his class because he was hands down my favourite teacher ? it’s just that i never was the most vocal student, i just listened really and wasn’t overwhelmingly good or anything so i’m not sure if it would seem odd

NO!  Please do this!  

Think about how you feel when you receive praise or recognition for something good you have done.  Do you like feeling that?  Teachers like it too.  We don’t often hear the positive comments.

Hello! I’m a fellow teacher here on Tumblr and I was wondering if any students have had a crush on you or, if you have ever had a crush on one? This seems to be a reoccurring problem in my school and I wanted to see if any fellow teachers have experienced the same.

I have not had this experience, and I truly hope it does not happen.

I get too many questions about it, however, from students.  I can appreciate where the crush comes from, but I see how it can go way too far.

I personally like @iwasyourteacher​’s responses to the teacher crush community:
