My daughter suffered.
I was getting a computer science degree at the same time she was learning in school.
After dinner when I was doing my homework, I made her do hers. Both of us at the same table.
I checked her work.
She’d have 100 arithmetic problems to solve.
I could easily see 3 to 4 wrong answers.
Computer science is mostly a mathematics discipline.
I would tell her how many wrong answers she had and ask her to correct them, but I would not tell her which ones were wrong. I also offered to explain things she didn’t understand.
She hated those few sessions, but she became a top student in arithmetic and math.
Too many parents don’t pay attention to the education of
their kids.

You were “homeschooling” after school. Some call it “after-schooling”.
