[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How dumb do you have to be as parents that you can not tutor your own kid in math? $50-80/hr to teach a 7-8yr old? Wow! [/quote] I don't have a tutor for my kids. I do help them myself. BUT, I can see how some parents would rather use tutors because of either limited time (they work), or because the dynamic between parent/child is different than tutor/child. Sometimes, it's easier and better for the kid (and parent) if they are taught by someone other than a parent. Some adults are not good at explaining things, like math concepts, to a young child. Sometimes I find myself looking for simpler words and ways to explain things to my 6 or 9 yr old. It's not always easy because I am not used to it. I suspect tutors that have experience with ES kids are more used to explaining things to young kids.[/quote]
