The kids are well above grade level in Russian and Math.

Their English is a bit too “indigenous” to South Carolina, so I’d like someone to help with that/they’re at grade level, but again, that’s in SC, which is 49 out of 50 for schools, and they are bright kids so grade level is not acceptable.

Ideally, someone who could at least touch on math, in English, enough to ensure they know the English words (they are learning math in Russian)

Spanish would help, and I’d be willing to pay for a tutor but it’s not a priority.

What grade are they in? And for English, are you looking for grammar/vocabulary, literature or writing tutorial?

5 and 9. Grammar and writing, I think.

I'm a bit jealous. I wasn't offered a foreign language until I got to HS. And these kids are already trying to pick up a third language. That is awesome!

It’s the ability which fades fastest with age, so it seemed logical to prioritize it.

I’d like to add German as well, if I can find the tutor.

It’s cheaper to hire tutors than pay for private schools.

They only seem to need a few hours per week via the tutors, online.

They do other stuff, to play with kids, etc. It doesn’t seem logical to send small kids off for 8 hours per day to a school.
