I know this year can’t be easy
Yes, giving a teacher a bottle of alcohol or gift card to a liquor store is completely acceptable. Even if they don’t drink, they can easily re-gift it!
According to Reddit, most teachers really love a heartfelt note or letter or a gift card (Amazon seems to be popular). DO NOT get them a mug!
You need to think of the teacher you’re buying for. If they don’t drink coffee, maybe Starbucks isn’t a good idea. And don’t buy your vegetarian teacher a gift card for a steakhouse.
Popular choices seem to be Amazon, Starbucks, Michaels.
There are mixed opinions on this one. According to teachers on Reddit, cash is more than welcome! Some people may find this tacky- try to go by the teacher you’re giving it to.
