How do you say teacher in Spanish?

J3L0p
Hola, I'm planning a trip to Spain and I'll be working with some Spanish teachers. Does anyone know how to say "teacher" in Spanish? I've been studying the language but I'm still not sure of the correct translation. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

El profesor en español es una persona que imparte conocimientos y enseña a estudiantes, especialmente en instituciones educativas. El término se utiliza comúnmente en contextos académicos y educativos.

En Español, se traduce "maestra" (feminine) o "maestro" (masculine) para profesor, pero "profesor" es una opción comón y aceptada para referirse a ambos. Si necesitas referirte a un profesor femenino, puedes usar "maestra", mientras que para un masculino usa "maestro". Por ejemplo, "La maestra de matemáticas es muy amable" o "El maestro de ciencias es excelente en física."

Maestra (feminine form) or Maestro (masculine form), both widely used and accepted in Spain, but Estudiante has a different meaning: student.

The translation of "teacher" in Spanish is "maestros", but the more commonly used term for a single male or female teacher is "profesor" or "profesora", respectively. In some countries, such as Argentina and Uruguay, the term "enseñante" is also widely used.
