[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Great to know there are other parents out there that feel this way! We have yet to meet most of the K class parents but I know most come from the UES/UWS where I can imagine this is more prevalent. I didn't even know what Russian Math School was until today! The school I attended would be considered one of the academically rigorous TTs and I never felt that it was a so-called "pressure cooker" in any way. The school gave us remarkable opportunities to explore, join and start clubs to follow our interests, and engage at a deep intellectual level across so many subjects. It honestly just felt magical to have that chance. Sure, we all worked hard but I don't ever recall it feeling like an unwanted grind. Had my parents forced tutoring on me, I'm not sure I would have developed the same love for academics. [/quote] A child doesn't view it as tutoring, it is a parent giving their child a remarkable opportunities to explore and follow their interest in math and engaging at a deep intellectual level. For many children it feels magical to have that chance, because their school doesn't challenge them enough. [/quote] Ha a real math prodigy doesn’t need tutoring at lower school[/quote]
