GOODBYE SIR OR GOODBYE TEACHER?

Post by hoanggia »

good morning sir or good morning teacher?
I heard that teacher is not a dressing that people can say like above.
Do you happen to know what is right and why do we have the song like.." goodbye teacher ,goodbye teacher ,see you tomorrow.." :P

I would definitely not let my students say "goodbye sir" to me! :lol:

My students call me by my name, or simply "profe" (from Catalan professora which means teacher) or even teacher (or lehrerin if it is German class).

Personally I prefer students to call me by my name.
