What should teachers be called?

Our Afrikaans teacher used to beat us if we called her Miss.

Mis, in Afrikaans, amongst other things, means tulip.

Come to think of it, that was probably a good name for the nasty, vindictive, bullying cow that she was.

I love hearing about the old days.

"Sir" or "Miss" until we were 16. Then first names. It becomes annoying because you forget their surnames and that's when you need references from a couple of them.
