[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Khan Academy link to College Board identifies items your kid has missed on the practice tests and will suggest practice problems and instructional resources. So just as good as a tutor if your kid is self-motivated and self-directed. The tutor mainly is a way to focus attention. I told my kid if they could self-tutor and improve their score I'd give them $1 a point (so if the score went up 100 they got $100) otherwise the money would go to paying a tutor. This plus their own motivation to study to improve their scores was enough. I more billed it as--let's just try and see if you can be your own tutor before shelling out money for a formal tutor. [/quote] I'm not one for giving money for grades, but I kinda like this idea.[/quote]
