He wasn’t teaching new, leftist American woke math, was he?

[LittleBillyInfidel]

I’m sure Joe Biden can relate.

The father learned that he is a crummy tutor. Time to send the kid to a professional.

Well, you know what they say about Chinese arithmetic...

[marktwain]

How much did he pay the people who scored the test?

[17th Miss Regt]

Why, yes he was. What does that have to do with anything? (/sarc)

[nickcarraway]

Would the kid have scored worse, better, or the same without the father’s tutoring?

[gundog]

Well, that 60%. It could have been worse. :)

"My daughter subtracted 700 from 800. She said the result is 900," he told a police officer.

Common Core?

[Trump Girl Kit Cat]

It is actually 6% so it rally can’t not get much worse!!

[Trump Girl Kit Cat]

rally =really SORRY

Possibilities include:

• Son is rebelling against father's methods.
• Son has some learning disability
• Dad is bad at math and teaching son wrong.
• Dad is teaching basic mathematics but test is focusing on properties of mathematics like the distributive property or the commutative property.
• Dad failed to find out what was actually being taught and/or how test is structured.

[nickcarraway]

Dad is bad at math and teaching son wrong. (My guess)

We had one daughter that varied a lot depending on her teachers. Some years the teachers were good and she “got it” in math. Other years we had to send her to professional tutors. And even there, they would have to match her up with the right tutor. We taught them at home with some stuff (like memorizing the addition and times tables - which was against the school district rules to be taught!), but as they got older it was too much.

And those years she would be in her math class and explaining it to all of the other kids that didn’t “get it” due to the lousy teacher.

One teacher never even taught!! She would play a video of the lesson and then hand out the worksheet. She would sit at her desk browsing and shopping on the computer! Wouldn’t even help a kid if they asked.

The damage those types of teachers do to our kids, and in effect - our country, is treason.

Let’s congratulate this father and son for defeating Asian stereotypes.

Well, that’s an argument against hone schooling right there. 🤔😒
