[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When my daughter had her admissions interview at Sidwell for HS, she asked about the relationship between students and teachers and was told by the interviewer (also a teacher), "teachers are not your friends". Was such a weird response. [/quote] While true that is a weird response in context. Teachers can’t be friends with their students in the sense that they clearly have power over them. However, teachers should be mentors, guides, and friendly, approachable people who seek to support their students’ learning and growth as scholars and people. Not all teachers are. [/quote]
