wr wb,
You just need to tackle the situation with a lot of hikmah and dua's.
Nothing new in when your dad launches a tirade against the work and the ulema's.
The Ulema e Huqq definitely didn't break a sweat when they faced opposition while giving
daawah, they just did sabr and sabr and lots of dua's.

"Huq baat pehle kadwi hi lagti hai" - "The truth is always bitter" or something to that effect.
Just continue doing Ta'lim, you should know that you can't behave with him (regd. taqlid) in
the same way he is behaving with you - that'll only defeat the purpose.

there is a karguzaari I've heard over and over that I think may inspire you.
hazratjee inam ul hasan ra received a letter from the US from a guy who had newly spent time
in the path of Allah SWT, saying that he wanted to remove television from his home but is
facing lots of opposition from his wife, who even threatened that she'll walk out of the
marriage if he removed the television ( unhappy husband's take a hint ) ...hzjee ra
replied "whoever asked you to remove the television from your home?" just start doing Ta'lim
regularly, that's all and the guy did according to hzjee's instructions, in the beginning
his wife didn't even sit in ta'lim, didn't allow even their 2 children too, but the guy
continued doing ta'lim, it was only a matter of days or months when she made her kids sit in
ta'lim and as time went by, she too started to join, and then Alhamdulillah, one fine day
the man come home to find his tv set thrown in the dustbin, the poor guy enters thinking
whatever happened for this to happen in his home only to find his wife saying that we will
no longer have the devil in their home, the guy replied "fine, you no longer wanted the tv
but atleast we could have sold it for some money, what was the need to junk it?" she replied
saying that she didn't want to spread the fitnah to other homes (what a good lady).
I know at your house its not about the television but its totally different, all I suggest
is continue doing the ta'lim on a REGULAR basis with all the adab + dua's, but really don't
try correcting your dad.
