Staying touch with teachers
Anon or delete - I don't want my friends to read this
Do you think it's weird to stay in touch with teachers after you've left school?
On the last day of school my my favourite teacher told me I was a 'lovely girl' and 'a good laugh' and gave me her phone number, telling me to keep in touch with her.
She said to phone her for a chat sometime and maybe we could meet up for a coffee - do you just think she was being nice or do you think she actually wants to stay in touch?
I'd really like to stay in touch but I wouldn't really know what to say on the phone to her.

I added my head of year on facebook from my high school. Not weird at all but thats just facebook.
I suppose meeting her face to face and not in a school. Would be strange because you spent most of your high school life calling her Miss.
So if you want to, then do it

A girl in my school kept in touch with her R.E teacher after leaving school, meeting up with her and going to the park with her kids etc. I personally find that a little bit weird. It'd be weird not meeting with the boundaries usually in place and in the school context.

Why do you think it is weird? Yes, you need to move on with your life, but that doesn't mean severing ties overnight - that's socially odd. I still communicate with a few of them on email and I am going to my Spanish tutor's wedding reception in a few weeks, and I left school a year ago. If you felt an affinity with them and they gave you good advice academically and personally, then that's a great relationship and one you probably won't forget - so don't feel the need to just cut them off completely. Keep in contact if you want.

Do you think it's weird to stay in touch with teachers after you've left school?
On the last day of school my my favourite teacher told me I was a 'lovely girl' and 'a good laugh' and gave me her phone number, telling me to keep in touch with her.
She said to phone her for a chat sometime and maybe we could meet up for a coffee - do you just think she was being nice or do you think she actually wants to stay in touch?
I'd really like to stay in touch but I wouldn't really know what to say on the phone to her.

it was nice of your teacher to do that. I think you should stay in touch with them. Heck they are human being also you know
Just treat them like your normal friends now (with of course with the respect they deserve) since you've already finished school and they are no longer your teachers. You'll be surprise how gossipy, chit chatty they can be LOL
cheers

Although there has to be a different (and maybe more distant) relationship between the student and the teacher when you are at school, teachers are people, and when you finish you can perfectly become friends with your teacher(s) provided the acceptance is mutual.

I could say I gained a new friend when I left school and was even invited to her house to have some tea and chat about our lives!

I still keep in contact with one of my science teachers, although I mainly just go up to my old school and say hi as we're both really busy. I do see him out of school sometimes but he was in a theatre group with me anyway so it's not too weird.
I think it's fine, after all, you've often spent 3-5 years of your life around them and so why should you cut them off overnight?

Yeah we're pretty close with our teachers (well ex-teachers now). We have quite a few of their mobile numbers, facebook, email etc and occasionally we'll meet up with them. We're supposed to be meeting up with our physics teacher for a few pints and a catch-up but none of us have got around to properly arranging something yet. That said, quite a few of our teachers our close to our age (physics teacher is like 24) so its a lot easier for us to just hang out as mates rather than a teacher student relationship (particularly after sixth form, where its a lot more 'chummy' than lower school).

My friends have added teachers on facebook so they can keep in contact and keep updated with things like uni stuff. Also, I know of a girl who keeps in touch with her teacher through email since she left sixth form. She emails him every now and again just telling him about how she's doing at university.
I think it was nice of your teacher to say keep in touch. If you want to, then just go for it! Even if you just give her a text to say hello and to catch up.

Basically, she sounds like a really nice person who obviously would genuinely like to keep in touch.
It's really not so weird, well at least not in my school, where even 3-4 years down the line former pupils still feel happy to email teachers, and we add them on facebook. I think some girls have met up with other female teachers.
I think basically you just need to get past thinking of your teacher as just a teacher, cause they really are humans behind it all
I don't think it's weird. Especially with teachers at college because your relationship can become one more like friendship than teacher-pupil. I still email a teacher from my old school because we get on very well - in fact my mum's old A level physics teacher is still a very good family friend

I have my German teacher's mobile number and her email address, and I am in contact with her. I see nothing wrong with it. Other people can think what they want, because I don't care 
Nopes its not at all weird, teachers may develop a liking for you and may start considering you more like a friend rather than a student. I plan to keep in touch with all of my teachers but only by giving a occassional visit to the school. I dont think anyone would be interested in going out for coffee with me (personally i wouldnt want to either unless there are other students aswell) but again there is no harm in doing so.
