They did something like that in the after school program when I was in elementary school.

The staff members in charge of the after school classes were essentially daycare workers who lacked the credentials of actual teachers but because one after school staff looked after a group of students in an actual classroom, it functioned like a class and they acted like teachers.

The school differentiated them as after school staff rather than true teachers by calling them Prefix Firstname rather than Prefix Surname. For example we take the name James Smith - if he was an after school staff he would be referred to as Mr. James, but if he was an actual teacher he would be referred to as Mr. Smith.
