Did you ever get into trouble at school for calling a teacher by their first name?

I remember doing that once in high school. It was a teacher I really liked. He gave me an evil look and warned me to never do that again. Why do some teachers get offended by that?

    I called my first piano teacher "Gladys"; probably overheard Mum call her that. I was soon put right.

  • No, but some of my teachers in high school hated their nicknames.  Sra. Gallego's nickname was Veronica Crabtree. I got into trouble for calling her that.  Sr. Parker's nickname was Herbert J Garrison. He laughed about it.  Dr. Suarez's nickname was Mr. Mackey. I don't think he cared.
