Sure it is. That person is a freak. I say that without malice, because it's pretty clear to me that he's decided that's what he wants to be, so I seriously doubt that it would be considered an insult.
An MTF isn't trying to stand out, in most cases, but to fit in. It's exactly the opposite impulse and desire.

The other issue is you can't pick your teachers in the government school system. Its not as if parents have a choice unless they can afford private schools, in which case they pay double in property taxes and then private school tuition.

Often, you can. If there are multiple teachers at a grade level, it isn't unusual for schools to honor a parent's request for a certain teacher.
Also, remember that this is a substitute. She's going to be there one day, not the everyday teacher.
