What is the best way to say "hello, how are you?"
Is it better, more common, more colloquial to say "最近好吗?" than "你好吗？" ?
My teacher (at university not on italki) says I should say "你好吗？", but my Chinese friends say I should say "最近好吗?"

"最近好吗" is you ask a friend who you didn't meet for a period of time , likes "how have you been"in English, I think if you ask daily ,"你好吗" is better .

见面时的问候
对地位高的或老年人说：“您好。最近您过得好吗？/最近您过得怎么样？”
对年轻人或朋友可以说：“嗨，最近过得好吗？/最近怎么样？"。
“你好吗”，这句话我不常说。
