Pretty much, except it's more subtle than cray-ON. The ON is less prominent I think. It's definitely not craaaaahn anyway..

It's kreion. Wiki the word and look how you actually pronounce it.. I was gonna say "I say it cre-ion"

Then I wiki'd it and it said kreion, same thing. So I'm right. It's not KR-AAAAA-N at all.

No no no, I agree with Cunning here. Its certainly not said KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN. The words cray-on, therefore its pronounced cray-on or kreion(?)

crayon is more correct then craaaahn or KR-AAAAAAA-N.

KR-AAAAAAAAA-N sounds like a cat being caught in a blender.

Kreion... basically cray-on without the 'on' being so heavily pronounced.

Crayon is coloured wax. KRAAAAAAAAAAAAN sounds like a viking call.

Have you actually heard other people say it like KRAAAAAAAAN? Because right now it seems your teacher got it right.

Your teacher > you.
