Are these questions correct gramatically?(Wh+am/is/are)

Hello everyone.

I wonder whether these kinds of questions are correct or not.

1-) Where are you a teacher? I am a teacher in Istanbul.

2-) At which university are you a student? I am a student at Harvard University.

I think that they should be correct, because I can not see anything wrong with them.

Thank you very much in advance.
