If they want to participate, they should get a moniker and register. The last time i checked, Nairaland does not charge for being a member of the forum. The challenge from guest viewers will be feedback.

Where are the big guns of this thread?
Evathyst, Omawunmie85, profgday, don't let me catch you on OAU pg thread o , goldendr, Artistically art, sunnypar et al. If you want this to materialize, let's start talking. Two good heads they say is better than one.

This is a very sensitive situation. Its normal on the student side though to have crushes on their teacher and sometimes(if not most times) the student tends to study more n improve in dat subject dat their teacher-crush teaches. But then its the teachers responsibility to handle the situation carefully.
If its d male dat is d student n a female teacher..-its somewhat easier as most teenage boys may not b bold enough to walk up to their teacher and say things.. But if they do, there r still tins u could do but I wud leave dat for anoda discussion since in dis case its female students to male teacher(correct me if am wrong)
Well !permit me to say dats it more common for a female student having a crush on a male teacher dan it is for a male student on a female teacher. Anyway..back to d matter.. No need to start stating how to know if a female student has a crush on a teacher ,cos am sure u already know. d question is how the teacher should respond..these are a few suggestions below.
Sometimes d student(female) may b bold enough to ask you in class if you are married or whether u have a girlfriend..if u answer yes, this sometimes can put them off n return them to the normal teacher-student relationship but on d other hand it can sometimes instigate jealousy. So using smart replies like "No I am not married but I am too old to marry u" or "yes I hav a girlfriend or wife and oh!! So u would like to marry an old man??" This can get the class laffing n order would b restored..
Most times students may hav what I call "innocent crush"" where they only want to b around u n hear u talk or b in a class where u teach.. Dat one is usually harmless..
Another point is refrain urself from giving out personal information to the students like ur Id on social media e.g facebook, whatsapp,bbm etc.. And information on age or marriage etc.. Jus tell dem dats personal info and you don't like to give out personal information..
There is much more I can write but I don dey tire to type jare... If u r on whatsapp pm me your number and we cud discuss more on the issue and also
@Goldendr n all the rest..this one topic we should trash out at d "get-together".. Abi how una c am..?

Happy sunday to Ibb4tone(m),
xeleb(m), Sunehri145(f), &
martyns200(m) what are your thoughts about the get together.

GoldenDr:
They are admirering you not making advances. It is okay to admire a teacher be it female or male. However, there should be a line drawn in order not to lead to advances. We all love to be admired for our dress sense, beauty or just about anything. Peejaywunmie mamaddd, vikkyhills and others over you guys

uniluv:
hello, pls is there vacancy in ur school? Am in Abuja too

ProfGday:

What would u do in a situation whereby ur colleagues/students are crushing on you?

tunery004:
Well, av bin a silent reader on d thread, I must say u guys are doing a great job. Amma like to know more abt d get together
.
Talking abt admiring and having a crush on a teacher, well, it is no offence for a student to admire a teacher and their young minds play tricks on dem dats y dey crush on dere teachers, it becomes and offence when d teacher take advantage of naivety of d young students to get involve with dem. Abt colleagues, dats a norm, absolutely normal it goes from crushing to approaching and depending on wot u want, it cud go further or ................. In my former school, our Yoruba teacher met and married our Furthermaths teacher. So no biggie in dat.

peejaywunmie:
Wonderful idea@avicky,u knw am in for d get together.pls just keep updating me.@upload 111,weldone sir en pls keep it up

@goldende thanks I almost forgot dat part...
If its a colleague... Hmmm well!.. If both of u are single then who knows dat could b ya bone of bones o!! Lol!! But to b serious I bliv u r both adults n should know how to handle ur biz (I no wan form saint neither am I claiming sinner). if you are colleagues at work then its may not really matter unless u work in same department or one happens to b boss n d other a lower staff. Then it may pose a prob to the organisation... Handling it ?? Dat one depends on a lot of things... Lemme save it for now ..am sure the answers he(profgday) wanted was the one on students
