It seems like the educated, power-couple types who obsess about pre-schools, private schools for young children would be capable of and better served by one parent not working full time and participating in their child's education themselves.

This does not work, a parent rarely has skill in enough of the curriculum to do it. It is extremely hard even in one subject for a qualified teacher...

Right. Yep, confirmed. There are no parents on Earth who have skills enough to teach elementary children 1 on 1 as well as the average teacher can teach 20 kids at once.

yea, yes. Indeed, the more kids the better. 25, 30, or even 35 kids to a single teacher is far better than 1-on-1. It's like homeopathic drugs... sometimes just the barest infinitesimal trace of a medicine is better than than a full dose.
