Yes, if you create a presentation in MS-Powerpoint 97 (for example) you can open it with MS-Powerpoint 2003. If you try to re-save it, however, you will want to make sure you click "Save As" so that you can save it as the older version so you will be able to open it at home again.
Transferring it to a Mac, however, is a question that I have no expertise in, so I won’t try to give you a BS answer about that.
You don’t have to do anything special for your teacher. The older version powerpoint files can be opened in the newer versions of powerpoint. No converter is needed. The file format for PowerPoint is identical on PC and Mac.
