Examiner rearranged equation's terms (8,6)

I believe the answer is:

question master

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'examiner' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?

'rearranged equation's terms' is the wordplay.
'rearranged' indicates anagramming the letters.
'equations'+'terms'='equationsterms'
'equationsterms' with letters rearranged gives 'QUESTION-MASTER'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for question master that I've seen before include "game host" , "Quiz show host" , "Quiz compere" .)
