[quote=Anonymous]AoPS is great for advanced math - extremely difficult. A tutor who will teach "non school" math-- competition math, interesting word problems, etc. I am not trying to be a wet blanket, because I do believe and have seen actual math geniuses, but a kid at three who is extremely advanced in math can look even more extreme. Don't take that to mean that he isn't gifted in math (I have my own kid who tested completely off the charts in early elementary), but it doesn't *really* show until they are quickly mastering advanced concepts (honors Algebra, AP calc, etc). Math tutors (who are pursuing advanced math degrees themselves are a great choice) and math competitions are the way to go - the math problems and problem solving techniques are interesting and teach critical thinking skills and methods far above what they will learn in a classroom.
