Morphology

teacherless = teacher (transparent) = teacher + less

Formed by the clear addition of the productive suffix '-less' to 'teacher', meaning 'without a teacher'.

Etymology

Teacherless is made from teacher and the ending less, where less means 'without'. So a teacherless course happens 'without' a teacher—think of homeless ('without' a home) to remember it means done or existing without a teacher.
