Well, all female teachers are called Miss + their first name, whether they are married or not. In private institutes I �m Miss Paula, and at state schools I �m just profe ( the short for teacher)...and sometimes my little students called me mum..!!  they feel so embarrased for the confusion and I laugh a lot |

All the kids call me by my first name, e. g. "Silke, can we play that game from last week again?" (I don�t work at a "normal" school though; I give private lessons to children only.)
My adult students also call me by my first name, except for the ones in companies when I teach them Business English. After a while, we might call each other by our first names though.
In public schools female teachers are addressed as "Frau X" (Ms or Mrs X); nobody says "Fr�ulein X" (Miss X) any more, because nowadays it�s not considered politically correct.  Male teachers are called "Herr X" (Mr X). |

Here in Japan they call you � �sensei � � (teacher) regardless in what kind of school you teach for as far as I know that is. I run my own school and I tell all my students to call me by my first name. |
