This would be nice, but in my experience is not always true. Maybe your school experience was different to mine, but I found that within a certain age range the teacher is often most disliked person in student's whole world.

In my high school, teachers who understood their material and were good at explaining it and willing to help if you didn't understand the first time got respect, and were well liked at the same time. Teachers the students deemed incompetent got respect to their faces only.
