Talking Oh teacher, teacher tell me how I should call you

I know there are many Arabic words than mean "teacher"... What are the difference between them?

1. أسْتاذ

2. مُعَلِّم

3. مُدَرِّس

I even think there are more... When to use each one of them? I think (1) is more like a teacher at university whereas the (2) is at elementary or high school, but I'm really not sure.

Thank you!
