| Jun 26 at 19:30 | comment | added | kcrisman | @JochenGlueck it is a very long tradition in the United States that churches (and other religious institutions) offer all manner of social services, either directly as part of their ministry or by providing space for non-sectarian such organizations to do so. English language learning is another very popular such activity. | |
| Jun 26 at 10:51 | comment | added | quarague | What is the target audience of your program? Do you want to help students currently in high school get better grades/ understand the material of their current maths courses? Or do you want to teach people above high school age the material they should have learned in high school? If the latter, do you need some kind of formal degree to hand out or is it sufficient if they understand the relevant material? | |
| Jun 25 at 19:58 | comment | added | Dave L Renfro | @user1149748: taught by experienced/licensed K-12 teachers --- If an appropriately knowledgeable person is involved in the selection process, and "experienced/licensed K-12 teacher" is not a requirement, then surely there are some poorly paid and harried college/university adjuncts in the greater Boston area who would jump at something like this and who could do a decent job at it. The key is having an appropriately knowledgeable person involved in the selection process and advertising where math adjuncts would see the advertisement, such as here. | |
| Jun 25 at 19:40 | comment | added | user1149748 | Are you talking about actual courses taught by experienced/licensed K-12 teachers? Or something more like tutoring? The latter would be much less expensive and easier to set up and run, and you can still have structure, a curriculum, homework, etc. | |
