It would have been impossible for a woman to be over a man in a teaching capacity during the first century Israel.
How can we read into Isa.3:12 that a woman won't be teaching several hundred years later? It has no bearing on if precillia actually taught or not. In this case it is grasping at straws looking for anything to say, no she didn't. it just isn't recorded what exactly she did.

But it does say acts 18:26 "And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue: whom when Aquila and Priscilla had heard, they took him unto them, and expounded unto him the way of God more perfectly. "

Or was the word they, mistranslated? There is no break inbetween the actions listed. no new subject listed to do the new action of expounding (teaching)...so yes it can be infered that she did teach, along side of her husband. I don't see her doing it on her own, but I don't see her just sitting there knitting or something else either. It says THEY, so they includes precilla.
