The sentence that has an indefinite-pronoun verb agreement error is sentence 4. Indefinite pronouns used as subjects must agree with the verbs. In sentence 4, the indefinite pronoun "each" is used as subject and it is singular while the verb "teach" is in plural form. This is why there is an error in agreement. The solution would be the following: "Each of the teachers teaches in a different way."
