Frankly I say 2, but am unsure.
Thanks!
You have a form of the verb "to do" in there with "did." The other verbs should therefore be in the "bare infinitive" form, meaning "to VERB" but without the "to."
...did not teach or suggest.
I'm not a teacher, but I write for a living. Please don't ask me about 2nd conditionals, but I'm a safe bet for what reads well in (American) English.
