I believe the answer is:

tutor

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'to teacher' is the definition.
(tutor is a kind of teacher)

'little pharaoh gets nothing right' is the wordplay.
'little pharaoh' becomes 'tut' (colloquial name for Tutankhamun. I am not sure about the 'little' bit.).
'gets' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'nothing' becomes 'O' (O resembles 0).
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'tut'+'o'+'r'='TUTOR'

'according' is the link.
This may not be correct. It may be part of another bit of the clue.
