[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Her Math skills are terrible? Ask her to just take basic foundational Math 101 classes in community college. Ask her to take the most basic Math class first and systematically rebuild her Math foundation. Math is very learnable skill. More than getting a college degree, she must tackle her fear of Math. It is probably easy for her to take a class a week in community college and still continue to work at wawa and look after the kids. I agree with others that she is overworked. It is up to you to help her to make time and go to her class and time to do homework. [/quote] You think she's overworked but you want her to study math for the hell of it at community college? She already took math if she he an AA. [/quote] But she is bad at Math and Math is an essential skill for further education. So she needs to start again and start from the bottom. She takes only one course per semester so the load is not too much. Even if she becomes a SAHM, she does not want to be useless in teaching her kids Math. Her DH needs to help her with the kids, she has to cut down her shift in WaWa, and she has to work on the basics of her education. [/quote] Who the hell are you? She has completed an education. The dad can teach math. [/quote] I took 2 Graduate Certificates when I had little kids in technical and mathematical subjects. I’m above average but not great at math. I never finished the Masters program because the classes were so difficult to take on top of everything else. I was working 24 hours a week at a Government Position in Computer Science. I had intended to use the education from those certificates to comprise the first half of a program in Systems Analysis. I had confirmed my eligibility with the school. The classes were paid by my work. But, after finishing taking one class per semester (actually it was in trimesters), I didn’t see any real benefit from getting a Masters and was very unhappy continuing so I did not. Yes, I have a Bachelors but there is no reason to believe my classes were more challenging for me than her classes are for her. If my husband had insisted I continue it would have caused a huge marital problem. [/quote]
