I love the title to this thread. We did it for one year because all our friends were doing it. I dislike it because directors/tutors get into for the money/to pay for their own CC and their motives get muddy. Also, if you get a bad tutor, you are out of luck. I endured a whole year of grammar and IEW being taught blatantly incorrect to my kiddos. I wanted to scream!! I can see the benefit of community big time. I actually considered it again because we are so lonely. Then I got a hold of myself! There are a lot of positives, but the negatives for us were so negative they could not be overlooked.
