My kids use Kumon and RSM too, only because what their school covers are pathetic. The content may be okay, but the teachers certainly didn't give good enough homework to help the kids deeply understand the math concepts and to get valuable problem-solving skills.
That we rely on Kumon and RSM says a lot the abysmal state of the education quality in the US. Case in point, I would not need Kumon or RSM at all when I grew up, as my school covered way more and way deeper math. Note the US is still the best country for the top students and those who struggled with academics. It sucks only for the majority -- the students in the middle like me. They could've got trained hard, yet the school squandered the opportunity.
