It wouldn't be weird, but it might be a bit surprising at first. Some teachers would like it, but some wouldn't. Instead of "madam", you can always use "Ms." or "Miss." instead! ^^

Thank you so much! But my teacher is Ukrainian, I can't pronounce her last name correctly😭. Can I call her just a single 'Ms.'?

@felix0915 Yes, you can! It's very normal in English to call someone "Ms." If you don't know or can't pronounce their name.
