[quote=Anonymous]Hi AAP moms - I’ve got a bright but not brilliant kid who needs to do pre-algebra over the summer in some kind of 1:1 setting to keep him focused. My goal is to give him a leg up in pre-algebra next school year OR if it goes really well, place him in algebra. Long story short, he has a terrible teacher/class for 6th grade math and needs to be shored up.

I’m trying to figure out the best way to do this and willing to throw money at it but of course would prefer to save. Here are my ideas in descending order of cost.

- Fusion 1:1 tutoring 4-5 days/week. They use their curriculum. Have to schlep him there.

- 1:1 tutoring at home with a “master” tutor using whatever curriculum they recommend

- Buy the AOPs or Beast Academy books and have a less experienced tutor do them with him

- Use the free school curriculum (Illustrative Math, Zearn) with a tutor. This may enable the gaps to be filled more easily and better transition back to school math for placement, but my kid HATES Zearn. [/quote]
