thanks Bastien.  this is nonetheless almost exactly what I wanted, so
thank you so much for the help.  the code I used was in the end calls
org-agenda-filter-preset instead of binding
org-agenda-tag-filter-preset, because I don't know the right syntax
for the latter:

        ("t" agenda "Teaching Agenda"
         (( org-agenda-filter-preset '("+teaching") )  ) )
