不要把美国老师的随和当随便don't acts too forward to your teacher

美国老师为了接近与学生的距离会让学生称呼他的名字，但老师的这种随和往往让中国学生当作是老师不严肃的表示，于是在课堂上表现得很随便，这其实是一种误解：
Since Americans are very casual, this can sometimes lead to misunderstandings.  A teacher who is friendly and informal with her class, for example, might invite them to call her by her first name.  But the teacher is only trying to create a comfortable learning environment; she doesn't really want the students to treat her like they do their other friends.  If a student acts too forward or gets too personal with the teacher, she will put a stop to it immediately.
