The tuition industry is similar to the healthcare industry. For small ailments, the general practitioner would suffice; for serious injuries or medical problems, specialists must be engaged for the appropriate medical care. For students who performed poorly academically, parents would be willing to spend top dollar for MOE-trained teachers or master coaches from branded tuition centers and not forgetting the ever-popular and expensive motivational camps, in hope for a fast and full recovery.
No medical professional would guarantee successes in their treatment or full recovery to any patient. The doctor can treat the patient and prescribed the relevant medication, however the patient is responsible for his recovery. For example, if a patient continues to smoke even though an antibiotic has been prescribed to him for pneumonia, there is little chance for a full recovery.
The teacher is responsible for imparting knowledge and techniques, the student is responsible for his learning. Parents, whose role involve that of a cheerleader, a teacher, an enforcer and a friend, are the bridge that ensure their Child’s learning continues at home. As Parents, our involvement and encouragement can help our child excel. The price to pay of Six Sigma for your Child is your involvement.
By the way, be wary of any education professionals that offer a money-back guarantee on results. ;)
“Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction and skillful execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives.” ~ William A. Foster

Hey my Child is not a factory!!!
Of course not. Your Child is a human. Six Sigma is about people problem solving. A factory is not just bricks and machines, we have people running the various processes, making a difference in the success or failure of the operations. Your Child’s education consists of processes. He is the owner of his own learning processes which there is always room for improvement.
Everyone has problems. To solve problems, there is a price tag. Are you willing and how committed are you to “pay” the price now by using the Six Sigma methodology, for your Child's problem that you deemed serious?

Is Six Sigma a corporate cure-all?
Yes, look at General Electric.
Is Six Sigma equivalent to success?
Yes, look at the success of General Electric and her former CEO, Jack Welch.
Is Six Sigma suitable for your child?
Why not? The issue is how serious are you, parents, to help them achieve success. If you are, you have to be Jack Welch of your family, in order to ensure your child continues achieving excellent results or achieves drastic improvements with the help of Six Sigma.
