[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They will do a personalized math assessment with your kid at aops, during which you can ask some questions. You can also look at sample problems online. It is very engaging math and has been wonderful for my first grader.

I do know families that like Mathnasium as well, but my impression is that it’s more similar to the type of math you would normally do at school.  [/quote]

All of them do an assessment. The AoPS and RSM assessment were pretty similar. They give your child problems and ask your child to explain how they solved the problem. They figure out something they can teach your child and then see how quickly your kid can understand the concept. It is fun to watch.[/quote]

My child is 6, kindergarten, is he too young for aops or rsm assessment? I don't think I see that age group. There is a AOPS in Gaithersburg, closest to my home. Is that review good? My child loves and enjoys math, could very assessesd as 2nd or 3rd grade level. He loves to drill math facts (repetitive questions) and logical math question. He can read math questions.[/quote]

My son did an AOPS assessment at this age and is now taking in person classes. If your child loves math and needs more than what they’re getting in school, I would highly recommend it. But if you’re unsure, you may want to wait. The in person classes are an hour and 45 minutes so your kid really has to enjoy math to sit through that. [/quote]
