What do you call this kind of teacher?
I have another question for you. This is something I've been wondering about for quite a while and I thought that this might be the right place to ask.
The kind of teachers I'm thinking of is English teachers in countries with English as first language, Danish teachers in Denmark, German teachers in Germany, Spanish teachers in Spain...etc...
Not the kind who teach the language to foreigners, but the teachers who teach the children in those countries to read and write properly and then show their inner Freudian when analysing different texts.
You know what kind of teachers I mean and most countries have them, but is there a word which covers that kind of teachers, in general? or do you just say "(name of language) teacher"? The latter could easily cause confusion, but I can't think of what else to call such teachers in a way to tell them apart from the kind of teachers who teach a language as a foreign language.

One would expect most teachers in Sweden to be Swedish. What happened to the convention that English-teachers teach English, but English teachers are in or from England?
