How did your parents teach you, and how did you learn in school? My children are learning similarly to how I did, with the only difference being that my eldest has a humanities-focused mind, while my middle child finds math and English easy. For me, everything was more or less even. My husband is very well-read, but he doesn't really know how to use it for himself; he wasn't good at writing essays.
Girls, we're around 32, young and generally healthy. But deep down, we don't have that feeling that…

Mom is great, almost excellent. Dad, well... he's average.
I'm pretty average at everything, my husband is barely getting by.
My older sons are excellent students

It's too early to judge how my son is learning, I learned better than my mom at school. But a lot was invested in me for that.

My kids are doing better in school than I ever did. It looks like getting a medal will be easy for them now. We can't compare our time to theirs. Back then, only one person in the class got a medal, and it was silver. And the class was incredibly strong. Everyone came prepared for every subject. They'd ask the biology and chemistry teachers questions, and literature discussions were so lively. It's amazing to remember. And how we loved history! Our history teacher was the best. We all had a knack for physics and math, and we all ended up becoming engineers.
Having a strong school really helped with the kids' studies; they picked up a mathematical way of thinking.
I don't know if this will help them in life, though. I worry about the boys right now.

With my first. Not with my second. This one takes after his grandfathers, he has a phenomenal memory and grasps things very quickly. He's two years ahead in school, he finds it interesting.

My son is learning better. We're not chasing grades like many people say. But grades do show the level of knowledge. Everything is so unclear right now. We try to participate in olympiads and programs, build a portfolio, and also try to ensure our son studies excellently. My niece didn't get into the state-funded program this year! Even with a gold medal! She was the best in her class. But at least they gave her a discount on tuition because of it. Oh, I don't know how it will be when my son goes...

My older one is just so different from anyone in our family. He has a mathematical mind and does really well in school. Math was a nightmare for me; I never understood it at all. My son studies using the Peterson curriculum, and with him, I've started to get it. 😄 My husband seemed to do better with it.

The kids are excelling, training, and I'm not, I just basically sat it out.
