A failure as a school teacher? (4)
I believe the answer is:
miss
This could be a double definition.
'a failure' is the first definition.
(I know that miss is a type of failure)
'a school teacher?' is the second definition.
'miss' can be an answer for 'teacher?' (a female teacher might be addressed 'miss'). I am not certain of the 'a school' bit.
'as' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for miss that I've seen before include "Suffer from the lack of" , "Musical set in Vietnam" , "Fail to meet - girl" , "One is as good as a mile" , "Teacher" .)
