Hi! My daughter is currently in Year1 (almost 6 years old) in the British Curriculum. We are relatively well-off so we can afford to send her to a very elite school with very affluent families; as such, many kids do tons of private 1on1 tutoring / group enrichment classes such as Kumon, Russian Math, Phonics, Hegaru method and the like, "to get kids ahead".
My daughter does some extra curriculars as well, though non-academic - around 4 hours extra spread across dance, violin and foreign language which she does on Saturday and Sunday mornings. Outside this I don't push her to practice and no other commitment expected. She enjoys these activities and happily goes. Everything is 5-10 min from home so she is free by around 11am. We spend after schools and weekends just hanging around, reading books, organizing playdates with friends, etc.
As teachers, do you notice any benefits to extra private tutoring / academic enrichment? Do these students perform better in class? I wonder if I am holding my kid back if I don't give her the extra boost in Math, Sciences or reading when we can afford to do so.
Thanks for the insights!
