[quote=Anonymous]McLean parent here.  This is not a promotion of McLean but a general comment about tutoring.  We used tutors for years for our DCs, who both have ADHD.  And, the one thing I noticed that was a big negative was that it took so much time away from the precious down time all kids, especially SN, need.  At one point, the tutor was coming three times a week, twice during the school week and once on the weekend.  It interfered with sports during the week and weekends, which I had a big problem with because my DCs are sports centered and the physical activity is critical.  Now that they are at McLean I feel that they are getting all the support they need obviating the need for a tutor.  And, they get all their homework done at school.  I get constant feedback from the school team and I provide feedback to them on my observations at home and where I think they need reinforcement.  I know it is a lot of money but it is a one stop shop and I don't have to take precious time out of their non-school hours for tutoring, which is not always in sync with what is going on at school and the tutors and teachers may not always communicate or have a good rapport.
