How do teachers feel about students who apologize after being rude? Do they actually forgive?

More than forgive, my opinion of the student after an apology is often higher than it would have been if the offense had not been committed.

Many of the "apologies" that people give today are not really apologies. When someone says, "I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings" or "I'm sorry if …."  I don't consider any conditional apology (one with an if) to be an apology. But a sincere apology, spoken with sincerity by someone who did something wrong, often shows character and courage.
