一开始的 When people are didactic, they're teaching or instructing.

我觉得应该是 When people ARE BEING didactic, ... 才对吧?
还有第二段的开头也是这个问题

...often used negatively for (the character one reflects) when he/she is acting too much like a teacher 因为didactic是个形容词

不对啊。你这样改了意思变了啊。这个词本身就通常是negative的。不是当某人或因为某人的行为太像老师时才是negative的

原句意思是: 这个词通常是负面的,指某人的行为太像老师时。

The term "didactic" appeared in the Advanced Studio Classroom 20130528 and 20050528.

Here's an audio note I made while I was at it.

I don't know. It's not for me to judge.

Let me ask my American friend about this one. I'll let you know.

for 不是表示意思16吗？

It can be written like this,

if people are didactic, they tend to teach and instruct others a lot, usually unsolicitedly.

But I wouldn't say the original text is wrong. It may be colloquial; that's true.

是不是可以这样理解didactic是形容词一个形容词本身就是表示进行时了所以are being didactic是多余的？

I believe one can also say "I am not being didactic, but I think you should ...".

All depends how you wish to express your opinions.
