PARENTS AGREE: Y3K TUTOR IN YOUR HOME CHANGES LIVES #29

April 4, 2019 By Y3K

The owner of Y3K Tutor In Your Home has been a blessing to our family!  A few years back I was having some behavioral issues with my son.  Thanks to his help, the Y3K Tutor In Your Home website was a wealth of information and helped us to get through many rough patches.  He is just a click away for whenever we need help.

I also have a nephew with ADHD, OCD, and other added issues.  The owner is wonderful to work with especially during very intense moments.  I would recommend Y3K Tutor In Your Home in a heartbeat!  His wisdom, knowledge, patience, and follow up has brought much comfort to our family when we were truly feeling hopeless!

ADHD in Girls Overlooked

November 7, 2017 By Y3K

Many girls are overlooked for ADHD diagnosis and treatment.  The reason is that even though they may struggle in school, they have good relationships with their peers and teachers like them.  Many adult women are diagnosed only when they take their children to be evaluated and realize they may be suffering from ADHD too.

ADHD in Girls

November 6, 2017 By Y3K

Many young girls and women have a subtype called predominantly inattentive ADHD.  They may seem flighty or spacy but are not hyperactive.  This might not raise a red flag with teachers or parents.  As a result, girls often go without treatment until they reach adulthood.  The use of ADHD medication among women ages 26 to 34 has risen 85% in just 5 years! 

Tomorrow we will look at why girls are frequently overlooked for treatment.

Classroom Difficulties (Part 9: Causes)

September 20, 2017 By Y3K

The written teacher evaluation and classroom observation information will help clarify the potential causes of a child’s difficulty in the classroom. In order to help a child, the teacher and the parents must consider many possible causes for the student’s difficulty. Without a careful evaluation, a child may be inappropriately labeled as a “behavior problem” or “special needs”.

Classroom Difficulties (Part 8: Never Tell)

September 19, 2017 By Y3K

An extremely important thing to note is the child should not be told they are personally being observed. People that know they are being observed tend to step up their game. The teacher should notify the students that someone is visiting the class to observe the teacher or may have a student in the class next year and seeing how they do things.

Is your student mislabeled as special needs or a behavior problem? Tomorrow we will address this as our series on classroom difficulty continues.

Classroom Difficulties (Part 5: Teacher Not Allowed)

September 16, 2017 By Y3K

There are two reasons that the teacher must not be allowed to do the classroom observation for a troubled student. The first reason is because they have already made up their mind. They already have opinions and won’t be able to look at the situation with an open mind.

Tomorrow we will discuss a second reason that you should not allow the classroom teacher to do the observation of your child. You will not want to miss this one!

Classroom Difficulties (Part 4: Classroom Observation)

September 15, 2017 By Y3K

A teacher may notify a parent that there are issues a student needs to address in the classroom. This could include lack of focus, silliness or emotional distress. Sometimes the teacher may be right as there could be classroom bullies or the teacher themselves may be causing problems for your student. In order to find out the exact cause of your student’s problems, a classroom observation by someone other than the teacher is important. Students can benefit from being closely observed in the classroom due to the information collected that would otherwise remain unknown. One important thing to remember is that the teacher must never be allowed to do this observation.

Why can’t the teacher be allowed to conduct the observation? There are two reasons why. Can you guess? Check back tomorrow for the surprising answers!

Classroom Difficulties (Part 2: Written Teacher Evaluation)

September 13, 2017 By Y3K

Many parents are notified that there student has issues in the classroom that must be addressed. One major tool at your disposal is the written teacher evaluation.   A written teacher evaluation describes specific behaviors and academic performance.   The purpose of this evaluation is to pinpoint areas where a student is having problems and areas of strength.

Tomorrow we will look at what must be considered when evaluating.
