It�s too bad that program didn�t work out for your needs. Another option you may be interested in is Mathnasium. We have one locally which my son tried for a few months last year when his school (finally) bumped him up a grade in math. I wanted to be sure he hadn�t missed anything. After the assessment, they started him at a level that was comparable to his new subject level, and then skipped him up one after a month.
My son did not enjoy it and felt that everyone else was there for remediation. He did not receive much one on one instruction because he did not need much help. Finally, he told us that we should stop wasting our money and buy a workbook from Sam�s Club instead.
After hearing so much praise for ALEKs, we finally signed the kids up for six months at less than the cost of a single month for Mathnasium (for one child). I find it is a much better value and quite similar in content. Home access rather than driving to the franchise saves quite a bit of valuable time also.
