[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is EF coach?

[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC 7th grader always spends hours on algebra1 homework, we were trying to decide if he need AOPS ( but we really didn’t want to add more workload on him) or just slow ( he’s slow on everything include daily routine), but then he got 600 in math SOL this year ( also had 600 in 5th and 6th plus 99% Iowa). They just started algebra2 after SOL and DC just continue the hours of homework routine again.[/quote]

AoPS is not a good solution for a kid that needs help in math. AoPS is for kids who catch concepts quickly and are ready for more depth. RSM is a better fit for a kid who is ahead in math but is struggling. Or Mathnasium, Sylvan, or Kumon.

What his grade in Algebra 1? [/quote]

Thanks and we will check those class you suggested. DC gets A, like 99%-100 in sis grade book, so it gets us confused whether we should, or what to do to support.[/quote]

That sounds like a kid who understands the material but has slow processing or executive functioning. You might want to work with a EF coach to see what you can do to help build systems or spaces that make it easier for him to focus on work. But if homework is taking hours now you might have an issue when he gets to HS. It sounds like he is understanding the material fine. [/quote][/quote]

Executive functioning. [/quote]
