Lesson 1.5. How to say 'teacher' in Spanish, please!

Postby raunchybbz » Wed May 21, 2008 8:27 am

Just started the Rocket Spanish course - absolutely love it, it's brilliant! When asked the question: En que trabajas? I want to say that I'm a teacher (primary school) but can't seem to find a definitive translation in the dictionary - profesora? maestro? If anyone can help I would be grateful!
Gracias. :D

For a primary school teacher, I've usually heard the word maestra (or maestro for a male).

My Spanish speaking students have always used maestra.

I have only heard "profesora" used for example in Andalucía. Someone else who has an opinion about this?
