[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] It’s not only academics, as you suggest. Fine, if a kid adores math so much that he wants to go ahead in the book, fine, good. If your child loves reading mundane stories in the reading book provided, again, great. The issue is with the hiring of extra unnecessary help for the kids. As they say, you get what you pay for. If you pay for a tutor, even though your child is average and not struggling, you are guaranteed to see improvement. Your average kid will become above average. Miraculous :/ That can be said for anything, academics, sports, music, whatever. [/quote] To me this just means these kids, all of them, have a whole lot of untapped potential. Why aren't we talking about how to tap into that? Why isn't the discussion: hey, extra tutoring helps even mediocre kids get better, so seems like the schools should be improving their curriculum[/quote]
