I have not heard of 'homeroom teacher". Do you mean home 'teacher/tutor'?
You say 'class teacher', not 'classroom teacher'.

2. ''at class'' is possible instead of in class?

'At the class' or 'in the class', depending on the context.

thank you

not a teacher

A classroom teacher may or may not be a homeroom teacher. All the term "classroom teacher" means is that the teacher teaches in a classroom. The teacher is not a cook or a driver, the person is a classroom teacher. The homeroom teacher is also a classroom teacher - this teacher has a class of students who come to the same classroom, with the same teacher, every school day.

********** NOT A TEACHER **********

Hello, Paris.

(1) I think that there is a difference between classroom and

homeroom teacher here in the United States.

(2) In my state, many middle and high school students

attend a homeroom each day in the morning. They do not study

a subject. The object of homeroom may be to take official

attendance and to learn about school news. In other words,

homeroom prepares the students for the day.

(3) A classroom teacher would be the teacher who teaches a

specific subject, such as math, history, language, etc.

(4) In some high schools, for example, a student may have one

homeroom teacher and six classroom teachers.

Thank you

P. S. Some high schools are very big -- thousands of students.

I think that one reason homeroom was started was to give a

student a sense of home. S/he may have the same homeroom

teacher (and fellow students) for the entire time that s/he attends

that school. The idea is to give a student a sense of community

so that s/he does not feel so isolated. On the other hand, some

schools (and students) feel that homeroom is a waste of time and

do not provide one.
