(先生に)お礼を申し上げます。


(先生に)お礼を申し上げます。

Hello can someone tell me how this phrase is to be used? Do I say it to the
teacher or is this a phrase to use with a 3rd person talking about a teacher?




That phrase is basically used "to the teacher".

**Example:**

Hey teacher, thanks to you I got a job. **I hereby express my gratitude (to
you right now).**

Similar when you apologize - お詫び申し上げます = I hereby express my apologies.
