[quote=Anonymous]I am glad you found a solution for your child.  This is great and the end game.

In the case of my 3 children, we did not go through what you have had to go through.  I never spoke with their math teachers (busy and traveling), but taught my children math through high school levels and even managed, at the encouragement of other parents, to coach elementary and middle school math olympiaid (AMC 8, 10 and 12) once a week for 6 years (like club soccer team coaching)while my kids were in primary school. I did not consult any math teachers when I took the task of teaching my own kids (and others) math.  I drew from my own experiences and the kids just keep coming back and coming back ... just like our soccer team.  Their performance in and out of school suggests they were not confused by outside teaching.

No harm. No foul.  And a lot of high AMC, mathcount, and AP math exam scorers!

There is nothing wrong with consulting your school teachers about outside teaching you plan to do with your children.

I was comfortable with my experiences and knowledge and moved nimbly without outside bureaucratic interference in my home educational life.[/quote]
