It's too much ': distance learning is pushing parents to the limit DIANA MENDEZ, GRADO 1002. Daniel Levin's son Linus must have been studying mathematics. Regardless of his efforts, Levin, who lives in Brooklyn, New York, has no problem Linus completing his math exercises. "You have to draw a whole personality framework for a character today," Levin recounted one-day SEMANA 2 last week. Parental involvement has always been critical to student academic achievement, as well as how large a classroom is, the curriculum, and the quality of teachers.
