Funny that I didn't get all bent about it. Some years back when I went home for a reunion he and I went to dinner together. Maybe offense needn't be taken when none is intended.
I agree and I think this is where communication and effort come into play. A little communication and effort to do better can go a long way to establishing trust. Once trust is established, the rules can be bent in all kinds of ways.
I would put that teacher among my top three favorites over my jr. high and high school years. In fact, he was probably my number one.
He was mispronouncing my given name (not unusual since it's an unusual name)...it was actually kind of funny that he called me Angies like there were multiple of me...and no one wants that.
