PARENTS AGREE: Y3K TUTOR IN YOUR HOME CHANGES LIVES
“We have used Y3K Tutor In Your Home for almost 2 years now to help my son through 7th and 8th grade and it has been extremely helpful. Even though our main focus is on math, Jerry is always willing to help with other subjects as needed and even helps my son with time management and organization skills. He is very flexible to schedule and very engaging with my son. I would definitely recommend him to any student that needs a little extra help!”

Be Strong (Part 2): Bullying
Be Strong (Part 2): Bullying
A coward dies a thousand deaths. A child that is a victim of bullying can feel like they die thousands of deaths at the hands of a bully. Despite some of the new “expect the bystanders to help” programs taught in schools today, the only real way to end bullying is for the victim to face their fear and stand up to the bully directly. This may risk pain and humiliation, but is the only true way to put an end to the problem before it ruins one’s life.
Be Strong (Part 1): You Must Act
Be Strong (Part 1): You Must Act
Everyone is afraid of something. The strong act in spite of the fear. The weak cower because of the fear. Being timid breeds doubt and hesitation that not only weaken but also can be dangerous. The coward dies a thousand deaths. You must be strong.
Easiest Way To Learn
The easiest way to learn information is to ask questions and listen carefully to the answer. The best students are not shy. Teach your children to ask as many questions as necessary until they understand. Let one question lead to the next. Stress the importance of asking the teacher, another student, their parents, or an experienced Y3K Tutor In Your Home tutor. Questions are stepping-stones to self-improvement and good grades. Truth fears no question.
