[quote=Anonymous]My parents never ever knew if I had homework, so of course they never checked my homework. Then in 11th grade I started hanging out with two girls whose parents were from Korea. I realized their parents not only checked their homework they had the teachers edition of the math textbook as well as other books. They turned in every single problem correctly. My grade in math got better when I started checking my homework against theirs and doing corrections. They also went to a tutoring program where the teacher previewed the upcoming lessons so it wasn’t the first time they saw the new math material. I also loved going to their house to study or do group projects. Their moms would make us tea and give us snacks. If we stayed up until 2 am finishing a project their moms stayed up as well (they both worked as well so it was a big sacrifice). If we needed supplies they ran to get us more tape, markers, science materials, etc. I have now emulated that with my own kids. I check 100% of their homework and make them do corrections. I have teacher editions ti check the answers quickly. It really does pay off. My kids are in high school and junior high now and are doing great. [/quote]
