does "which" go with people/animates

I've never been sure if it is correct to say "Which teacher do you like more" or "which grandma is closer to you?" because I know that which is used only with things... Please give me some guidelines...

In your sentences which is not a relative pronoun and consequently it is correctly used. As a relative pronoun it is not used to refer to people: This is the man who/that saw her there.
