Reply To: Can we have an adult conversation about education?

In terms of improving things, I think having very large schools is a problem, leading to low responsiveness. I am not sure why we need such. Take a small group of kids of same age, hire 1-3 teachers and have a class in a house or a shul. Next year, you go to another teacher. This is how, for example, R Ruderman and R Kamenetsky learned in Lita. They did complain about one teacher who did not respect students enough, so presumably the rest were fine.
