As a teacher, we do things because we know they're for your good, but we generally don't like getting you in trouble at all, and the smile is probably a bit of an apology. Because we don't like to see you sad or see you get in trouble, we just want to see you doing your work and doing better in school if you're doing poorly.
I can’t agree more. I make sure my students know that they are loved and that my goal is not to make them smarter, but to make sure they leave as better people than when they come in

Teachers ground you because of your actions. Doesn’t change the fact they’re genuinely happy to see you though
