老师和学生应该成为朋友吗？
Do you think if teachers and students should be friends? Different students have different ideas.
Amy, 14: It’s OK to have a fun relationship with teachers. When they befriend you, they are easier to talk to, they understand their students more and it can even make learning more fun. If they take the friendship too far, that is wrong.
Alyssa, 17: It’s OK to have a teacher trying to be a student’s friend. It makes you enjoy the class more. Also having friendly teachers makes the task of going to school a lot less painful because not only are you connecting with your friends sitting next to you but also the one at the front of the class.
Felix, 17: I think teachers being students’ friends is stupid. They can even try to act like one of the students, but they are our teachers, and as long as I’m a student, they shouldn’t try to be a friend.
Gloria, 17: It’s cool that teachers attempt to be students’ friends as long as it doesn’t get too friendly. I think it’s good to have a good relationship with everyone.
Ian, 16: I think it’s creepy(可怕的) when teachers try to be students’ friends. If they begin to know you too well, then it can become awkward in class. There needs to be boundaries in a teacher-student relationship.
Kristen, 18: I think teachers trying to be friends with their students is weird. It shouldn’t be that way; there is always the question of favoritism. You never know whether the friendship will force them to give you a good mark or not.
Nicole, 14: It’s OK for students to be friends with young teachers. Older teachers only talk about when they were our age and about their past, but young teachers talk about stuff that students are interested in like fashion, sports and music. Young teachers don’t judge what students do on weekends or after school. They encourage us to have fun.
