@zicai_tang Thank you! Can I also say that the teacher is “calling the register”? Or does it sound weird in American English? (I saw this expression in a British tv show but I am not sure if it's used in America)

@sallykr I think it would sound unusual, Americans never say that. It's more of a British saying. 😆
