[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid is in first grade and we are working through a calculus textbook at home. Math just comes to him. Would love for him to get a better foundation than I can provide. These college classes sound expensive though. What is the cost?[/quote] I have seen claims like this before on DCUM and it blows my mind. I don't think this is actually possible, but I could be wrong! I don't know enough about giftedness. Can you elaborate on how your child has the knowledge and cognitive foundation for calculus at age 6/7? In terms of your q, if your child is that intelligent, not sure they need to go to college to learn anything. Stick with textbooks and tutors? Or see if DC can audit? There's also MOOCs, which could be a lot better than any inperson instruction where you are at the mercy of who ever gets assigned to teach the course (whereas MOOCs often have amazing teachers). DC must also be able to use a computer by now.[/quote]
