Classroom terminology

[Kymus]

i used to have a sheet once upon a time that was given to me that had a list of all the class room terms in Chinese. Of course, like a moron I managed to totally misplace this and haven't been able to find anything similar since. Think anyone could list for me such terminology in Mandarin and Cantonese? Specifically, I'm reffering to things like basic exercises (ji ben gong), elder student, younger student, teacher, grand master, creator of the art, etc... I'm not reffering to kick/punch/grab

thanks!

LOL!! Now I want to be able to say "I think you need a face lift" in real manderian!! I have a very select individual that i'd like to say this too, in front of another specific individual who would surely ask me what i said to the other, and hit the floor laughing when I told her the translation! :D
