[quote=Anonymous]Some of my friends who are retired teachers (in another part of the country) have been querying whether there would be interest in having retired teachers be a household's primary in-person teacher for the next school year. I think this is brilliant and brings to memory governesses that were the norm for monied families of the past (see: The Sound of Music). Paying experienced teachers what they're worth would be out of the capability of most families, but could we envision a government-funded model that would match a reserve corps of retired educators to families in their communities?
