[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] It's not that the classes are harder in response to kids doing cram school, it's that teachers then expect that the students already know the material so don't actually teach it. My kid is bright and doesn't need a lot of teaching but he does need [i]some [/i]teaching. Teaching, not reminding. [/quote] In that case, you should bash the teachers for not doing their jobs rather than bashing Asian parents. The teachers should cover the materials that they're supposed to cover, and if kids are bored because they've pre-taught themselves the material, that's their problem. Teachers shouldn't be catering to that at the expense of everyone else. [/quote] Yup and that's the current state of education today. Multiplication is supposed to be taught in third grade. How are you supposed to teach when 1/3 of the class already knows multiplication 1/3 is actually on grade level and the other 1/3 is behind.[/quote] lol. well, it's now time for white parents to whine about the need for "differentiation" in the classroom, except for now they will demand that the middle and bottom get special attention. yes, it will be a challenge for moms to say "Larla is an average learner! she needs a teacher who can differentiate and teach the whole class!" part of the tiny silver lining of my (white) child having an IEP is that I am outside of the "system" already and have dropped all preconceived notions.
