On so many forums, in some my classes, said in so many books: Instructors, GET TO KNOW YOUR STUDENTS. Ok, i do. And then I figure out that I don't really like who they are as a person... or a student. OR I figure out that I really do like this person as a person, beyond them being my student. And some people I don't like as students, but like a person or vice versa.
How, oh how, do I reconcile this? What do I do? Do I get to know them or not? How much do I get to know them? when they say something that implied they want to share something person, do I ignore it?
Please help me. I REALLY want your opinions/ insights.
Thank you.
