[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP, please could you elaborate on “the quality of teachers and attention to students are far more superior than FCPS classes full of 27 children per class.” Do you teacher qualifications professionally? I’m genuinely interested as I am weighing potential switch to private after teacher issues. Thanks.[/quote] I do not evaluate teachers professionally. However, I have been lucky to visit two private schools for business purpose and I noticed a significant difference in teachers and academic standards. During preschool we noticed the same difference. Privates with a lower teacher to student ratio was better than private’s with higher teacher to student ratio. I am not saying that FCPS teachers are unqualified. [b]However the private schools pay a higher salary to teachers for providing better one on one attention.[/b] I can not afford it. So I supplement with extra classes which give them at least some time to express themselves directly with the tutors. I also notice that FCPS teachers in elementary schools can easily get by with bare minimum work and attention because parents are super active. Put them in Arizona and you will find their real qualifications. [/quote] Typically it's the other way around. Private teacher pay is usually lower.[/quote]
