To a man teacher, you can call either “teacher” or “Mr” or “sir”. A woman teacher should be called either “Mrs A”(if she’s married to a Mr A) or “Miss B” (if she is not married). Remember you should not call her “Teacher B”. It’s not natural in English.

“Sir” and “madam” are used in hotels and shops when a person’s name is not known. Public servants like officials and policemen, use these forms, too. So when you speak to a foreigner, you don’t have to use these forms too much.

To a stranger, we don’t have any special(专用的)form of address(称呼). Just try your best to get away from the necessity(必要)of using one.

People who don’t like the polite language may call a man “mate” or “Joe” or any short Christmas name and a woman of any age “dear” or “honey”.

A boy may be called “son” or “lad” and a girl “dear”. “Miss” is usually used when calling a shop assistant or waitress(女服务员). But children sometimes use this form when addressing a woman teacher or a woman unknown.
