[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]After reading this thread, please just hire qualified tutors with an educational background. There is a lot to know when teaching kids; it’s more than just following a workbook that your friend recommended.[/quote] Parent here. I studied math all the way through college, have a bachelors degree with 2 different (unrelated) majors and a minor, and a masters degree. I think I can teach my elementary school kids to read and how to do arithmetic. Especially when given a solid curriculum. Good grief, what kind of country are we where we think parents can't handle teaching their kids multi-digit addition and subtraction? After all the "experts" (paging Lucy Calkins, Irene Fountas, or Gay Su Pinelle) have shown us they [b]don't[/b] know?[/quote]
