Hi Joy,
Better is this: "I didn't hear the teacher when she called on me."
意思是：老师叫我的时候，我没听见。
Hope this helps,
Jason

I think the options are either:
I didn't hear the teacher when she called.
or
I didn't hear the teacher when she called out.
If you call on someone, it means that you visited them, usually at home or maybe in their place of work. I called on my old school friend, but she was not home.

"I didn't hear the teacher when she had called on"

Another option is: "I didn't hear the teacher when she called." On is considered a preposition and you shouldn't end a sentence with one.
