Men enough

Are these sentences correct:

1-There are men enough to do the job.
2-There are enough men to do the job,

(Meaning: There are a sufficient number fo me to do the job.)


3-They are men enough to acknowledge their weaknesses.
(Meaning: They are manly enough to acknowledge their weaknesses.... The sentence is somewhat sexist. I was just interested in its grammar.)

4-He is a teacher enough to make these kids understand this lesson.
5-He is teacher enough to make these kids understand this lesson.

Many Thanks,
Navi.
