Even if you understand something now, it does not necessarily mean you will still understand it tomorrow or next week. Repitition as a homework is actually a simple and efficient method to increase the likelihood that knowledge will be remembered. > Which is a good way to amplify the problems for people whom parents can't afford the time or never got the education to be able to help. This is also quite wrong. Do you really think it helps children that suffer from a lack of parental support if more children artificially suffer the same? Children need every little bit of support they can get.
