[quote=Anonymous]The summer classes go through roughly one quarter worth of material in one week.

The students have to be 100% locked into the class and ready to work on it several hours per day.

If your kid is not good in math, or gets distracted by their phone or zones out even a little bit, they are going to struggle in summer math no matter how strong the teacher is.

If your kid is in summer geometry, earning a poor grade, and past the point of dropping the class, you or their fwther needs to make a commitment to take away their phone and sit near them for the remaining classes, to make sure that they are completely engaged in the class, taking notes and asking questions.

Then you need to make sure that they are spending several hours outside the class studying, reviewing notes, and doing the homework and practice sets On Paper, not on the computer, and checking every answer to make sure they understand it.

Summer math is NOT a blow off, remedial class.

If your kid is on their phone or not paying attention even a little bit, and is not a math genius, they will struggle in the class at no fault of the teacher.[/quote]
