Then a professor painstakingly walked I and several others through it to disabuse us of our ignorance.

However, it would seem your professor did not teach you about English grammar.

Correct: a professor ... walked me and several others...

Sorry, the incorrect use of direct/indirect objects is a pet peeve of mine.

“However, it would seem your professor did not teach you about English grammar.”

Not English grammar, no.

“Sorry, the incorrect use of direct/indirect objects is a pet peeve of mine.”

That’s okay. I cringe when I see people use possessives instead of plurals. We all have our pet peeves.
