[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] We are a family of calm introverts and prefer to spend our money on extra-curriculars and travel rather than private school. [/quote] Op here. So my child’s weakness is writing. He isn’t horrible but not great. He still gets 4s in language arts. My friends’ kids get extra help at their private schools in their weak subjects. DH suggested we just get a writing tutor. DH obviously doesn’t want to end up paying $40k per kid x 3.[/quote] PP you replied to. We pay $90/hr for an excellent writing tutor (AP English teacher) for my rising 9th grader. My son has low processing speed and ADHD, and his writing issues are a consequence of his issues. Your husband is right, customizing a child’s education is cheaper in the long run, and often better in terms of quality, if you get the right tutors. [/quote]
