What is the right tag question?

I'm a teacher, ..................?
a- aren't I b- am I not c- am I

I read in a book that both (a) and (b) are right, but can (c) be right too.

thanks

a - the natural way in normal speech and writing. b - correct, but rather formal. c - possible if, for example, the speaker is expressing doubt about someone's assertion that s/he (the speaker) is a teacher.
