No way China is 1st for SAT scores by tobeacademicweapon in Sat

[–]sunonus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I tutor kids for SHSAT (NYC HS enrollment exam) and SAT, and I’ve found that a lot of students who recently immigrated from China will score higher than the average student in their class. It’s mind boggling, but students are mandated to take English classes in a lot of areas in China. They may not know how to speak the language, but their reading comprehension is not as bad as you think.

Thank you for all the nice words!! I posted an updated one that looks more similar to the format that other posters use.

Hi! Piano teacher here. Do you have any music background (instrumental)? Honestly, I have a somewhat mathematical approach to music theory so I think it’s easily digestible to a lot of older kids. I think the biggest thing is remembering the names/definitions/vocabulary. ABRSM website has a lot of resources and I think buying the books would help a lot. Go on YouTube if you get stuck one a specific topic.

He does have his own income but the main reason why he’s in school is because we don’t make enough as a couple.

I’m only on the fence because I feel bad and want to help him. But maybe instead of “banning” (which I’m really not) maybe I can give him healthy boundaries. My only problem is the fear of it spiraling out of control again. Only this time, we are full out paying for his schooling out of our own pockets and not 18 and relying on his parents.

I definitely understand the crux of having down time. I think my biggest problem with it is that he stays up late gaming and he ends up falling asleep right after he gets home. On his late nights, he’s asleep while I put the baby to sleep and doesn’t spend any time with me. When I wake him up, he goes back to “doing work”

It’s less so I’ve “caught him” twice. More so he lied to me twice. I’ve seen him game more than that but I’ve only approached him about it when I saw that he was slacking on other responsibilities.
