[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have been to AoPS. It’s a good curriculum assuming you will need minimal help from teachers. Most students just practice math at home. They fill up 12 to 18 kids per class. So there is a limited one on one interaction. I would rather consider RSM or Mathnasium should you prefer more one on one interaction. [/quote] +1 . The instruction provided at class has been minimally helpful in completing the homework. I do not have time to figure out math problems, so a lot of time my child does not do many of the hw problems. [/quote] Does your child do the assigned reading at home? Instruction at these enrichment programs is primarily to introduce and develop new concepts, not primarily focused on completing the homework. The HW is supposed to be challenging, but doable once the reading, attendance, and participation is class is done.[/quote] There are no assigned readings or the children are not told to do any reading, just to complete the HW problems. The chapters are posted online, so a self motivated child may read the chapter. [/quote] There definitely is assigned reading every week from their book for Prealgebra and above courses. Not sure for Beast Academy, maybe not, since they do spend part of class reading the guidebooks[/quote]
