There is a massive difference between educating a single person who you have a very close relationship with and managing the education of ~100 students in batches of 20 to 30 which you know for a single year, given only a few hours a week with them. Most any parent (or most any relative or family friend) without training is able to do the first form of education due to how much time they can spend and the existing relationship, but they will not be able to do the second. There is a limit on how much education they can give based on their own knowledge, but even without training they can still teach the basics they know and instill a desire to learn. We can't scale this. We can't hire enough teachers to work with students 1 on 1 in the same way parents can. We have to have experts who work with groups of students to continue their education into more advance knowledge. But even these experts can't do the entire process of education, at least not with the class sizes they are currently being given. |

1 on 1 is not necessary. Even one on ten is probably not necessary. One on twenty for the average case is effective, while "trouble kids" get smaller class sizes. School boards never approve that though.
