[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The instructor for my kids math competition class with RSM is in Albania. We could care less because he covers the material well and our kid loves the class.

I don't know how the AoPS classes work but the RSM Virtual Class only allows 12 kids into the class. I would guess that a text based chat class would allow for a larger number of kids, making it less expensive then a on camera class where you limit the number of participants so everyone can participate and you decrease potential lag time.

At least RSM is honest about instructor's location, and shows the instructor's face and let's them speak like one would expect from a typical online class.  What is unscrupulous about this AoPs offering is first they charge more than a typical online class so it is not less expensive, and more importantly it is termed Live Online class misleading enrolees into thinking it would have a live instructor who appears and teaches the class with audio/video, when it is just a group text chat admin, assisted by more chat assistants who do DM texts. No one know if this chat admin is the same instructor that they display with "photo" during registration and payment. [/quote]
