I am not sure what you mean by this sentence.

What do you mean by "go with a new teacher"? Please clarify that.

The answer is "how far." Students are always interested in finding out how far they can go with a new teacher.

It means they want to test their limits, or boundaries, to see what kind of behavior will be acceptable, and what will not.
