Sorry to correct you, but the result is correct. As Carsten said: 

The :CATEGORY: property applies to the entry headline _above_ it, and to
the entire tree below it

So in your example 

>> * Teaching
>>  :PROPERTIES:
>>  :CATEGORY: Teaching
>>  :END:
>> ** Sanskrit I (WS08)                        :PROJECT:
>>   :PROPERTIES:
>>   :CATEGORY: Sanscrit I
>>   :END:

the ":CATEGORY: Sanscrit I" applies to the entry _above_, i.e.

** Sanskrit I (WS08) 

and  the  ":CATEGORY: Teaching" is overridden. The TODO 
entries in your file are _below_  ":CATEGORY: Sanscrit I" 
so they will show up fine. 

Think of the PROPERTIES as an attribute of the entry above.
