[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To add further, people routinely complain that test has material that is not covered in class. That 20% that needs deeper understanding is the issue here. [b]That is precisely why you want to go to TJ[/b]. [/quote] Yeah, because the teaching is certainly not the reason to go to TJ since the math teachers do not have a reputation of being good teachers. As someone who had an excellent calculus teacher that inspired me to love math and science, I think it's a shame. But at least math is only one part of TJ and there are other parts that are better, if kids successfully self-teach themselves math.[/quote] You shouldn't generalize. Some of the TJ math teachers are fantastic. I've heard very good things about some of the elective math classes.[/quote] Students find TJ teachers to be fantastic only if they go in with prerequisite knowledge for their class. If student without solid Algebra skills enrolls in precalc teacher's class, then they will be shown misery. [/quote]
