[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think these math schools we have count as cram schools. My kids do math outside of school but it's not like high pressure or stressful or anything like that. It is just another thing they do like soccer or baseball. The main reason to do extra math is because they can and the school curriculum is too slow.[/quote] Aren't places like that the US version of cram schools?[/quote] The math schools here are one day per week with some.work at home the other days in the week. The article describes cram schools as everyday after school. My kids like being good at math and getting good tests scores. I can see that it makes them confident and that they feel good about themselves. The math schools here are not some toxic pressure cookers that makes kids miserable. [/quote]
