kumon extra tuition

[crisgal]

has anyone tried this with their children?
i am sick of the weekly arguments, tantrums and frustrations with my daughter's homework!!

I am wondering if some extra tuition would help her.

But i'm not sure i have faith in a company thant spells Come On with a K and a U!!

I think it's pronounced "koomon" :o)

I just got my daughter a private maths tutor. she's having one hour session every 2 weeks (that's all he had free, and I thought it would be a good trial).. she's been once, had a maths class in school and sailed through it. her confidence is up, and she's really happy.

with Kumon they have to work each day. my daughter wouldn't be happy with that, but I beleive they get good results.

so where did you get your tutor, sara3? Just from your local paper? That sounds like a good idea, once a fortnight.
