[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mine had tutors where they needed help. For DS that was a writing and EF tutor in 9th grade and French in 9th-10th. For DD, French in 9th and then math in 10th-11th.

We learned with #1 that our middle school does an awful job teaching the basics of French grammar so the 9th grade French tutor was helping them get up to speed on what the MS didn't teach. We recommended that tutor to a lot of people coming out of our MS's French program. [/quote]

We hired an excellent tutor starting from 5th grade to teach Spanish for both my students. They started on Spanish in 6th grade (magnet curricullum) at school.  My aim was that my kids be fluent in the language and finish AP Spanish by 10th grade or so. The tutor was a public high school Spanish teacher. My kids are high achieving students so it was not remedial.  
Our experience in the public school system has been that math, science and fl teachers are pretty much hit or miss. we always had insurance against a subpar teacher.
