It's true that when one pays for a few lessons, s/he expects a quick return on the cash. So, teachers are supposed to show some quality in the areas of communication/social skills and abilities to identify strengths, weaknesses and interests in the paying student. Whether the education or entertainment take place in such classrooms remains to be seen.

On the other hand, the above mentioned customer service may not be so common in a public school layout where the large class may be expected to be motivated rather than academically challenged by the FT. So, as public school FT lessons are insignificant for students' performance, the scope of such classes is at question.

Anyhow, where the student studies does not matter as much as what and/or for what purpose s/he studies with us, since the academic goals give directions to all parties involved in. A return on investment should be considered and pondered.
