My perspective was that maybe having some of the money back would allow you to teach more people.
I understand where you are coming from. From my perspective, I don’t see the point of helping “more” people. Doing so lowers the quality for the existing students and creates more burden on myself. If you were in my shoes, what would be the inspiration for helping more? For me, I’m just looking for a balance. One person at a time, when a student leaves I’ll get one or two more to fill the spot depending on budget.
payments in style of Lambda School are not that bad… and if you fail to get the promised new job, then there is no payment
I really hope you are right. Personally, the students who are the slowest have severe self confidence issues and they don’t communicate their emotions very well. It breaks my heart to imagine the emotional turmoil they might feel if they fail. Part of what I spend most of my time doing is to make sure nobody fails. I’m extra committed to make sure nobody gets left behind. Maybe it makes a difference, maybe not.
