[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know there have been many posts about this in the past, but my kid is really questioning the RSM (Geo 7_3) program and wants to try AOPS.  Kid complains about how the teachers aren't really explaining the material well and moves very quickly through the concepts.  Anyone switch kids from RSM to AOPS during middle school math?  If so, can you give benefits and drawbacks?[/quote]
Is this Tyson’s location? Bc my kid is complaining about the same thing! I’ve had to review geometry in order to explain the concepts to her. Maybe RSM needs to be made aware![/quote]

Yes, it's the Tysons location.  He complains that the teacher is the issue.  Kid is a strong math student so don't think the issue is the honors vs advanced program.  I think the RSM Tysons branch struggles with finding good teachers.  They had a really strong Algebra I Honors teacher last year but the teacher isn't teaching anything this year at this location.  Kid has been pretty consistent with wanting to try AOPS next year.

For parents with kids in AOPS, what do you think of their teaching staff for middle school and high school curriculum?  [/quote]
