[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The only people I know who have tutors have learning disabilities/are struggling. [/quote] Or aiming to get into Ivies! You are naive if you think that tutor/coach is for struggling kids. Many parents I know, completely disregard what is being taught in MCPS and are coaching their kids following curriculum from other systems, countries, textbooks etc. I never even look at what nonsense homework the school gives my child. He is done in minutes with the homework and usually it is done in class or the bus-ride home. He still has to put in a good amount of work with me in Math and Science and language arts at home. You could say that I am home schooling + sending him to MCPS. Unfortunately the common core should have taken a leaf out of E D Hirsch's books - and they did not. http://books.coreknowledge.org/home.php?cat=298 I do not blame the teachers one bit because they are burdened with some really insane directives from MCPS.
