Dislike Methodist as teacher to an extent (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

distaste

'dislike' is the definition.
(I know that distaste is a type of dislike)

'methodist as teacher to an extent' is the wordplay.
'to an extent' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'DISTASTE' can be found hidden inside 'methodist as teacher'.

(Other definitions for distaste that I've seen before include "Repugnance" , "lack of relish?" , "Dislike of something unsavoury" , "Negative feeling" , "mild revulsion" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
