I think something we sometimes forget is that a commercial school often has more students, which actually can make it a bit easier to be patient, and absorbs some issues better. If I have 3 students in a class, one who is hard to deal with makes the class a pain. When I was teaching classes with 20 kids in them, it was much easier to manage the difficult ones (including the fact that there were enough other students that nobody had to be stuck with them for the entire class).We’ll, you certainly won’t have the time with them if you cause them to quit. The longer I can keep a student, the more opportunity I have to have a positive impact on the student.
Since I own a commercial school, I obviously benefit financially from keeping the student. However, I can honestly say that that is secondary. The instructors that I choose to associate with are sincere in that regard, too. As a school teacher, as well that holds true. I didn’t become a teacher or MA instructor to get rich, but I do earn a living from teaching.
