[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ok this is the most recent problem my 7-YOs couldn't figure out that frustrated me. i think it's purely an intelligence issue which a tutor can do nothing about. wrong? 15, 30, 20, 27, 25, 24, 30, 21, 35, 18, __, __[/quote] 8:19 again. That is exactly the kind of problem that requires a conceptual understanding of math rather than an ability to count. A good tutor will absolutely be able to help your kid understand this. This is not an intelligence issue. 99% of math is practice. It's not an innate thing. The good news is that you've caught the problem early. It's great that you have recognized that there is an issue. Bring in someone who is qualified to help. [/quote]
