See, this is what happens when your teacher is a noob... :'(

Not joking >.> My algebra teacher in highschool. I was her first class. She was 22? And I was her first class. Oh, and did I mention she was actually an english major, but was teaching math because she had no choice? I struggled all through my math in high school because she messed up half the crap she taught me.

Well, what you said made more sense. My teacher told me that it was the exact order of PEMDAS. Multiplication before Divide according to my teacher?

then that was dumb of your teacher to say that
The correct order is
terms inside parenthesis
exponents and roots
multiplication and division (Done Left to Right, Even if it's Division before Multiplication)
addition and subtraction (Same ^)
