Definition of misteach

1 sense · 1 part of speech · etymology included

verb

  1. To teach incorrectly.
    “Men are mistaught many things: that violence and control of others are acceptable, that they are strong and therefore entitled to be violent. Similarly they are taught that they are not victims; that they can and should take care of themselves. For gay men, this heritage can lead to violence in their relationships and denial about their victimization.”
