Answer:a. projection

Explanation: he is probably feeling inferior himself or he feels less qualified in the subjects or he just fail at teaching them hence in order to feel better he has to think that it's because they are intellectual inferior or make it feel like they are not intellectual so that he may feel better about his probably failing teaching methods.
