that last comment was from Leah is from Eng 140
Well done, Leah. But adding "yesterday" doesn't change the verb tense -- which remained in the simple past for all of your sentences. You could change it, for example, to the simple future:
The little, elderly teacher will woefully show his peers the ugly theories of math.
Or, you could make it into something complex, like the present perfect continuous:
The little, elderly teacher has been woefully showing his peers the ugly theories of math.
