Dear teachers

Dear teachers
Some more questions...

1)You have always insisted that you ____ a person that considered a matter realistically.

Which one is correct? "were" or "are"

2)As there being air-conditioning, so many people have gathered in such states.

Does this make sense? I wonder if 'being' is used correctly.

Thanks.

No. Since there is air-conditioning, many people have moved to / settled in such states.
