[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think some of the tutoring is parents outsourcing things parents used to do themselves.  In this area, there is more money than time so it becomes an option. [/quote]

If parents are doing workbooks or 1-on-1 lessons with their kids at home to get ahead, I would count that as outside enrichment. And there are still quite a few doing that. All the self-paced Beast Academy and AoPS products would not be selling like hot cakes if there were not tons of parents out there still willing to sit their kids down at the kitchen table and teach them some deeper math. Same with all the other school subjects.[/quote]

I’m in a Beast Academy Facebook group and actually a lot of the parents posting are homeschool parents. [/quote]

Several homeschool parents I'm friends with use BA as a curriculum. I wouldn't use it as a primary curriculum, because I have heard it's way of teaching can leave some gaps, but as a supplement sure.[/quote]
