[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My own opinion is that the phrase "cram school" typically refers to a tutoring program that is utilized by first generation immigrant families and are mainly advertised by word of mouth within particular immigrant communites (a plus is one that comes to mind that is popular with east asians).

Kids do these programs not just as test prep for the county magnat programs but also as an extracurricular activity. because it is popular with the parents of their social circles (and a better use of money than sports).

I would not characterize the franchise type places (Kumon, Mathnasium, Russian School of Math, etc.) as "cram schools".[/quote]

So it looks like some parents have issues with other parents providing the help their kid needs to succeed in the academics?[/quote]

I only help my kid to wear revealing clothes and post provocative pictures so that they can have a career as a Tiktok star. The only help I have given is spring for the money to buy a stripper pole in their bedroom so that they can get exercise and hone their dancing skills.  Academics is for losers and these children who study outside of the school day are basically cheating.  [/quote]
