[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]this is not the same as starting a cake business. there is a direct conflict of interest. this is a slippery slope for publics to go down the drain. i have seen this happen in other parts of the world.. in the worst case, teacher personal interests will eventually kill education quality in the school. [/quote] It is the same. They’re both open to the public. You can choose to work there or not. You can choose to do business there or not. Unless there are student/family incentives for using either business, there’s no conflict.[/quote] If half the class is paying the teacher's business partner, how do you think subjective grading goes? You've basically added a middleman to bribery at this point. Tutoring kids in other schools is probably fine. Tutoring kids in other classes, less so but probably ok. Forming a business with teachers in one school to tutor kids in that school seems like official corruption to me [/quote]
