[quote=Anonymous]I'm almost afraid to ask this question because the top thread on this forum right now seems to be one of name-calling and stereotyping and I'm not sure what else. I'm not a tiger mom or anything remotely like that, but my 3rd grader is truly struggling with math. Yes, even in the supposedly easy-peasy MCPS new curriculum. He had a college student tutor during the summer and it was wonderful - at least in the sense that he seemed to make a tiny bit of progress and develop a little bit of self-confidence. But we need to find someone now during the school year. We have some feelers out to MCPS teachers, but because we both work FT and have a rambunctious younger child, I wouldn't mind an option that is out of our home. I saw an advertisement for Mathnasium in Bethesda ... can anyone speak about it from first hand experience? Or other options? Stupid question, but does Kumon do math and is that one we should consider? Thanks for any advice, and please no accusations. I'm not trying to get my kid into the Ivy League at 8yo, just keep him from crying over basic multiplication. Thanks![/quote]
