[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pretty much all my kids' friends have tutors in one to three subjects. These are all kids in advanced classes. [/quote]

These are students who would fail advanced classes without help.  No different than kids getting tutors because of learning disabilities.  You don’t waste time with a tutor if it’s not necessary.  [/quote]

It's not a waste of time to support a child.  There aren't textbooks and the teaching style is way different than when we grew up.[/quote]

I think this is a big problem and all the private tutoring is masking how poorly schools are educating kids. At least when you had textbooks you could re read a lesson on your own. Thank God for Khan Academy, but I still think more should be happening at schools.[/quote]

Absolutely agree! It’s completely masking incompetent teachers and/or ineffective methods of educating children (flipped classrooms, edu-tech, etc). Even the teachers say to use Khan academy! Which I don’t get![/quote]
