But also count me on team — lets make targeted investments in teacher compensation and provide educators with great support and instructional materials. 3/3

I think we got the order wrong in our understandable attempt to help as many kids as we could as fast as possible. We went for scale and are now trying to get to quality. We need to focus on quality & then scale horizontally (lots of small programs) instead of vertically (expanding program size) 2/3

Mike - I think you are asking the right questions. My take is while the post-pandemic tutoring evidence has been less positive than hoped, that is in part because our expectations were inflated and our evaluations were premature. These programs take time get right at scale. 1/3
