  • teacher
  • in the school.
Show Solution

The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Spot the special phrase.
The sentence uses one of the best, which is a fixed pattern to watch.

Step 2: Recall the rule.
After one of the best, the noun must be plural, because we are picking one out of many.

Step 3: Check the noun used.
The sentence says teacher, which is singular. That breaks the rule.

Step 4: Correct it.
It should read one of the best teachers, with an s.

Step 5: Verify the rest.
She is and in the school are both correct.

Step 6: State the answer.
The error is in part C, teacher. \[ \boxed{\text{teacher}} \]
