To treat someone as inferior as a result of some sort of help they accepted from you and to feel you have right to teach, control, or check on them. Clearly not a noble behavior.

Well, 'patronizing' means to talk to someone as if they were stupid. Understand now? Good! :)

Patronizer 

A person who talks down to people, who thinks they are superior to everyone else. They are very condescending in nature. In other words a complete bitch or asshole.
A patronizer will say things like "Stop that or I will make you go sit in the corner" or "That's a conversation for outside of this office". They will say things like this and use a patronizing or condescending tone of voice.
