My honest ACE Academy Math review: what a regular class actually like

2 Upvotes

My child joined ACE Academy Math after taking the trial and placement assessment. He was placed in an honors program, so this review is about that track rather than every math course it offers.

The class was a live online lesson with a small group of students and lasted about 90 minutes. The teacher would introduce a topic, work through an example and then give students time to try problems themselves. Students were sometimes asked to explain how they reached an answer, so the class involved more than watching the teacher solve questions.

The most useful moments were when my child had the right answer but couldn't explain his reasoning clearly. The teacher would ask a follow up question or have him show an intermediate step. That made it easier to see whether he understood the idea. The group format also gave students a chance to hear different approaches to the same problem. The teacher would sometimes compare two solutions or ask the class to discuss why one method worked more efficiently than another. That added something beyond working through the questions alone. The placement process was helpful because the course level did not seem to depend only on school grade. The Honors material was challenging, but it generally followed a clear Algebra sequence rather than feeling like a collection of unrelated difficult questions.

Overall, the main value of the ACE Academy math class for us was the combination of a clear course structure, live teacher feedback, and the chance to hear how other students approached the same problem. It gave my child a more interactive way to work through challenging material than studying indepedently.

Discussion Teachers, librarians, and others who work with kids ages 7 to 12: 30-min chat about how kids come up with stories ($30 Target gift card)

1 Upvotes

Hi all! I’m hoping to learn from people who work with kids ages 7 to 12: classroom teachers, librarians, after-school and camp staff, tutors, and workshop leaders.

I’m researching how kids come up with ideas, tell stories, and make things, and what helps when they get stuck. You don’t need to run anything special. Your everyday experience with kids is exactly what I’m hoping to hear about.

It’s a 30-minute video call. As a thank-you, I’ll send a $30 Target gift card after the call (US only).

Full transparency: I’m working on something in this space and want to learn from people who actually work with kids before building more.

If you’re interested, here’s the 2-minute sign-up form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSejSkCE9bpfadscGtyDwcmRtQ5sgOt9yiKcBXkSs1nLjeRpMA/viewform

Happy to answer questions in the comments.

Mods, if this isn’t allowed here, just let me know and I’ll take it down.

**Who am I?**

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm a former professor with 20 years of experience in private tutoring. I've taught at multiple universities, including Northeastern and Rutgers Business School, built 30+ courses (MBA, MS, BS/BA), and have lectured to over 6,000+ students across AI, data science, analytics, programming, econometrics, machine learning, operations research, finance, and supply chain.

**How Do I Teach??**

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't hand you conclusions, Google results, or AI slop. I walk you through the reasoning so it actually sticks, step by step. I ensure that you can describe and explain the concepts to me in detail, and actually apply it to practical problems so you can see the knowledge build for yourself.

I'm a father of three, and I bring the same patience and compassion to my students that I bring to my kids (and my plants). I've dealt with burnout myself, so I keep sessions low-stress. We go at your pace.

> "I think this class was the most successful between technical and business balance of the entire curriculum in the MSBA program and wish more courses were like this."

> "He made everyone feel very welcomed… He cares a lot about this class and his students and it really shows."

I also have a few playlists on YouTube if you would like to get a sense of my lecture style (which is a little different than my 1-on-1 session, but you can get a feel for how I think through topics):

For Hire [OFFER] Fall Tutoring (US & Canada)

1 Upvotes

I will try to keep this short and concise. If I look like a good fit feel free to reply here or DM me and we can talk about the finer details.

Experience: 9 Years as a tutor. Bachelor of Science in Nuclear Engineering from Penn State.

Subjects Offered: I focus primarily in math and science but can handle any subject at the middle or high school level outside of foreign language. I can also help with Freshmen/Sophomore level math and science in University.

Rate: $35CAD/hr via e-Transfer or $25 USD via Zelle

Approach: I try to focus on the why's and how's of each topic covered. I have found that this is the most neglected area in most classes. The student knows theoretically what to do, but doesn't know why they are doing it so they can't apply it to outside situations or to adapt it to new problems. I value being asked questions and talking through the problems to focus on the problem areas.

I also have a testimonial post if you want to read reviews from past students. https://www.reddit.com/user/rjytutor/comments/1q3wy8n/testimonials/
