9"Frankly, I don't ever plan to go back into the classroom due to the large amounts of paperwork and politics that are going on here in St. Louis (and I'm sure, everywhere in the U.S., etc). I enjoy my job with TD and helping families on this side of the spectrum as opposed to dealing with the paperwork and drama in the classroom. I always loved tutoring too because it brought me closer to the student, and I could focus on the one, not 25 of them. I'm always curious to see how we're increasing ADHD, Dyslexia, Autism, etc diagnoses and why. I do believe part of it is due to them not diagnosing effectively in the 80s, 90s, and before then. But I'd love to know more about how these learning disabilities continue to increase due to xyz reasoning that they think. I find it interesting as a special ed teacher myself. I think any trends like diagnosing learning disabilities or anything like terms we should be using today would be great to know about."37.0%

In addition to this, I believe the current difficulties experienced with North American markets achieving growth has to be the economy and effect of inflation on many families' spending habits. Finding a way to keep our overall costs down in order to allow for discounting (without negatively impacting margins) would go a long way to allow us to make our service more affordable to a larger percentage of the populations we serve."28.8%

We are the main seller, but the challenge is that it does not scale. We worked to bring on an educational consultant, but she left shortly after she was trained. This is a high labor/low margin business - and the way to make those work is with volume. I want to crack the code to get more consultants working for us- we haven't figured it out yet."22.4%

1"Non-profit and government cooperative agreements.    Selling direct to a family to pay full price does not bring enough business to pay the royalties and expenses.   I am only surviving because I have non-profits paying for foster tutoring, state government paying for tutoring, and homeschooling.    I'm competing with individual teachers who have side-businesses that have a better relationship with parents and students, schools that have grant money to offer after school programs for free or greatly reduced - even in the private expensive schools.  I've been asked too many times to count how dare I be a for-profit business - that tutoring should be offered free and tutors be volunteers.  Local libraries seemed to be a great meeting place, until they started passing rules that for profit companies can't use their facilities anymore.  I don't know what I'm going to do when tutors and parents don't agree to tutoring at home.   I do not want to have to have a facility but our business model I fear is dying and I wish we spent more time figuring out how to do this for in-person or, do we just do virtual tutoring?   Getting cooperative agreements with government, public libraries, etc. is critical to being able to offer in-person tutoring.   But how do we do that when no one knows what we are and do?"58.5%
