'yet to declare act as teacher?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'yet to declare act as' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'yet' could be 'still' (synonyms) and 'still' is present in the answer.
'as' could be 'in' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'in' is found in the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?
