[quote=Anonymous]Kumon is repetitive drilling, to the point where students will be able to do elementary math in their sleep. Best for memorizing multiplication tables, and the like. Lots of worksheets and minimal teaching. RSM is heavy on the algebra early on. They drill, but not to the level of mindless repetition of Kumon. There is some encouragement of creative thinking. Teachers are gruff. AOPS is high-level, creative math with very little repetition. They often encourage students to do the math in their head, which I don't always think is a good idea. Teachers have been warm.[/quote]
