Can we buy Russian school math material.

All of the ones mentioned have good local reputations. The teaching "style" varies from one brand to another. Also, different locations might have some variance from other locations within the same brand.

Kumon has some 1:1 time as well as worksheets, btw. One also could just buy the printed Kumon materials from Amazon or B&N and do them at home. Same for some other math enrichment systems.

This thread might get more responses in the general education forum. If one does searches in that forum, one will find this topic comes up several times each year.

If they are behind and need to catch up for next year, Mathnasium. If they are a good math student and you want to accelerate them, Khan academy and supplement with math puzzly workbooks.

True. But that is looked down upon here. It's some kind of flex to send your little kid to an over priced center to learn double digit multiplication.

We’ve been happy with the Mathnasium in Darnestown, but I haven’t tried any other options. As a previous poster said, my child is happy to go there so that’s why we do it.

RSM’s summer math looks to be 6 weeks with kids meeting twice a week for 2 hour sessions. There is instruction and homework.

My son is at Mathnasium. We go to the Rockville location. The big plus is that he can walk there. The second big plus is that he likes the teachers/center director. Then the center adds some fun activities like a summer chess club and a Friday night pizza/game night.

I can't say that Mathnasium is the best of the tutoring services out because I haven't tried the others. But I know my kid enjoys going and that's enough for me.

We have done Avatar math, though it is all online. I like the teachers and have enjoyed the classes for the kids. We don't do summer but during the school year.

We also did RSM but the commute for me was very difficult. I did like the program, though (Reston location)

I want to get my kids some sessions this summer but am overwhelmed by the options and don't really know anything about them. I've heard that Kumon is just kids completing worksheets in a quiet room so am not leaning toward that option. Do you know anything about any of these facilities or have any other good options for consideration?
