My gym teacher told us that it's ok to do pullups everyday. I don't like to work out in school since I don't have time to do everything I want to, so I just sit around in the weight room. Would it be ok to do a few sets of pullups or chinups everyday, or would it be overtraining?

If you stayed WELL shy of failure on every set, you potentially could reap some benefits from doing chins almost everyday. It's called "synaptic facilitation." Do a net search on it if you want to find out more, I don't have the desire to sit here and explain it. However, don't expect any real hypertrophy from this type of training. You will simply get really good at pullups.

I'm not gonna say yes or no, but I think if you did pullups more often than once a week, you would reap some benefits in strength for sure, like a physical job, the more you do it the easier it becomes.
I wouldn't do this for a long time, maybe a week or 2, then stop and go back 2 normal.
I'd say give it a shot and if you get any good gains then you'll know they worked, but u may realize u don't gain diddly.
