a government programme could be established
that uses pensioners as mentors for students
each senior mentor would function as a private teacher for each student
pensioners would volunteer as mentors
and be rewarded with more pension money or salary
and the pensioners would be selected based on their capability as mentors
it would be mainly child students and teenage students
that would get senior mentors
since young students are in need of mentors and private teachers
that accelerate their education
if there are questions that the senior mentor can't answer
or if there are study tasks that the senior mentor can't help with
then the young student and the senior mentor
could use a mobile device to ask an ai teacher for further information
a senior mentor can explain in person
with the help of gestures and body language
and using physical objects as pedagogical examples
which an ai teacher can't
and the social factor of a senior mentor gives pedagogical results
that shouldn't be underestimated
in the old days
sons of nobility were taught by private teachers
which enabled those sons to learn a lot very quickly
even though many of them weren't gifted students
which makes it strange
that a senior mentorship programme wasn't established
for the children of workers
after the industrial revolution
