  1. MATHCOUNTS is a really fun competition. It covers various math topics. He will send newsletters monthly to all members. Here are some topics: Number Theory Properties of Integers Angles, Polygons, and Circles Perimeter, Area, and Volume Ratios and Proportions, Sequences and Series Linear Equations and Functions Quadratic Expressions and Equations Coordinate Geometry Counting Probability and Statistics
  2. He will review 50 math topics, which is important for MATHCOUNTS/AMC/Math Olympiad competitions. Math games include riddles, puzzles, Bingo, etc.
  3. Thanks for asking. My son will do math games, introduce math topics and help students prepare for the MATHCOUNTS competition.
  4. My son is a rising high school junior. He loves math and he is a state-level math competition winner. He is organizing a free national math club (non-competitive) for homeschooled students in grades 6-8. If interested, please complete the form below. Deadline: September 10th, 2020. The first meeting will be on September 14th (Monday) at 4:00 pm - 4:40 pm PDT on ZOOM (weekly on Mondays). https://forms.gle/n8bybVtKN9KYoTCfA
  5. Any reviews for PAH APUSH with Lisa Hawkins? Thanks.
  6. This is exactly what we are looking for (no discussion requirement and no live sessions). Thank you so much for your detailed review.
  7. We are looking for an online Physics C class for our son to take next school year. Does anyone have any experience with the PA Homeschoolers class with Lanctot or Kernion as the instructor? Thanks.
  8. Please share your reviews for CTY Linear Algebra online course (session based or individual based). Thanks.
  9. I am looking for a scientific writing curriculum as an elective course. Any recommendations? Thanks.
  10. This set could be taught without teaching experience. I am not familiar with BetterChinese. It's hard to teach phonics with no teaching experience. I also hire a professional mandarin teacher for foreign students in China (The teacher can speak English very well) to teach my son once a week (My son learns mandarin with me every day, and the teacher helps me teach grammar usages.) via Skype (25-minute 60 Chinese Yuan). http://www.prcba.com/online/9637.html
  11. Shuang Shuang Chinese Textbooks (total 20 books) have both simplified Chinese and traditional Chinese versions. You can preview the simplified Chinese version here. Please contact the author to order the book. email: sszw.admin@gmail.com
  12. I am a native Chinese speaker. My DD is 5 years old. I use "si wu kuai du" (total 7 books) to teach her. You can buy the whole set from iPad App store. For your older child, I'd suggest use HSK Standard Course books (total 6 levels). You can see the sample book here and get it via eBay. My DS (12-year-old) currently uses the level 3 book. The most difficult part is the Chinese Pinyin (phonics).
  13. My local private school also refuses to take outside students to take AP exams :(
  14. Like :thumbup1: Literature – Literature at our house Mr.Travers is very organized and he has deep understanding of literature. He usually takes one month to discuss one book. My DS has been enjoying his classes. Grammar—Barbarian Diagrammarian (The Lukeion Project) Writing – Classical Composition We use curriculum with DVD lessons taught by Brett Vaden. Geometry—Jacobs 2nd edition Dislike :confused1: Writing – Soverbose The instructor gave comments no more than ten words! Total waste of money. Grammar – Growing with Grammar Level 8 No challenge.
  15. Update: So Verbose is not a good fit for my son. He thought it was too simple.
  16. So Verbose​ essay class is not a good fit for my DS. He thought it was too easy.
  17. https://www.writingassessment.com/ Cindy Marsch is awesome!
  18. My DS wants to self study AP Physics 1. I heard that the test is not easy. Any good textbooks or good online class?
