You know, Pentcho, at some point you should take responsibility for your own confusion -- and CORRECT it -- rather than pinning the blame on teachers for your confusion. It's really not a big deal. It happens to students every day that they misunderstand something that their teacher said, and you don't find them spending their lifetimes expressing their outrage at their teachers for their misunderstanding.
