The proposal to tax tutoring services has sparked mixed reactions among educators in Sibiu. While some support the idea of declaring and taxing all income, others argue it does not address the underlying issue of students needing extra help. Education Minister Sorin Costreie advocates for the taxation, emphasizing the need for personalized education in schools. School directors generally agree with the taxation but stress the need for a simplified declaration process to encourage compliance. Some educators warn that high taxes could lead to fewer tutoring sessions or increased costs, disproportionately affecting lower-income families. Others believe that the focus should be on improving the education system to reduce the need for private tutoring.
