My teachers stood up and explained a topic. We read further, did homework and were marked on tests and projects. There may be a period after the lecture where we could try to get help. Perhaps going after class might get you extra help but most teachers seemed to be involved in coaching after class.

Where does teaching come in? The lecture or the help after?

A teacher with a small number of students can interact with all students. A teacher with a large number of students cannot. Is teacher/student interaction valuable? I’d say yes. Student to student interaction is also valuable.

Teacher assistants can provide one on one help. They can provide context to the teachering lesson petsonalized to you.

We had much more back and forth, discussion and such. And teacher would know you personally somewhat and would communicate with you personally when ypi had trouble.

The class was giving feedback to teachers, verbal and non verbal.

The verbal feedback needed because teachers had to wing it like a standup comedian wouldn't be necessary because each lesson would have been vetted and choosen as the best material.

Having to slowdown the entire class because you need help helps you but not a percentage of the class. Going quicker for you hurts a different segment.

The answer is personalized education.
