Though John gave you the answer (above), in future you can use the
locate tool to better effect by trying a few basic steps.  Forgive me if
you know this and tried it already :-)

1/ After installs/removals/upgrades run, as superuser, "updatedb" to
update the data base of files that locate knows about.  BTW: Though not
related to "locate" you need to do the same with rpm packages, except
the command is "rpm --rebuilddb". 
2/ do a wildcard search to cover more possible hits, eg., try looking
for "teach*" or "*tool" in the case you cited, rather than the full
word.
3/ repeat (2) with upper case first letter, and variants of that
depending on the name question.  Eg, one that tripped me up recently was
"MToolsFM" - simply couldn't find it until Eric pointed to the correct
capitalisation :-).  Remember, GNU/Linux is case sensitive.

It's possibly point (3) above that tripped you up.  Hopefully you'll
have better luck with the "locate" tool next time :-)
