Coronavirus – Limit Your Information Intake

April 10, 2020 By Y3K

If you watch a news channel, you will notice that every 30 minutes you will see “Breaking News” that looks and sounds just like the “Breaking News” from 30 minutes before. Listening to the same type of hype over and over is not helpful. It will only cause fear and hysteria.  They are only reporting the bad while ignoring the good to fit their narrative.  Similarly watching the stock market hysteria is not helpful.  The market will go up and it will go down. Instead of watching 24 hours a day of panic, you need to go on with your life.

In 1940, England was being bombed 57 consecutive nights by Nazi Germany.  Every night the Brits waited for the air raid sirens. Each night they hid in fear. Then the next morning came and sun rose out into the sky. After a morning damage assessment, they went on with their lives.

It makes it a lot easier to go on with your life when you surround yourself with positive people. We all know people who look at the glass as half empty instead of half full. Now is not the time to get dragged into their anxiety. Social distancing may the perfect antidote to remain positive and filter out the negativity. If you see these “the sky is falling” people on TV, turn the channel. Too many fake news commentators now predict the end of the world and the permanent collapse of the stock markets. They have been wrong at least since 1940 England. They remain wrong today.

Dissection Hurts Children

January 10, 2017 By Y3K

Studies show that students being forced to dissect animals can actually scare them away from pursuing a career in science-related fields such as becoming a medical doctor.

Hard Work & Risks

December 6, 2015 By Y3K

We must be willing to do hard work.  We must be willing to take risks. This can be a daunting task.  We may ask ourselves, “What if I put in all of my time and energy into this hard work and fail?  What if it’s all for nothing?  What if people laugh at me?”

Quiet those negative voices.  We have to give 100%.  We can’t give up.

Parents Agree: Y3K Tutor In Your Home Changes Lives #2

October 9, 2014 By Y3K

PARENTS AGREE: Y3K TUTOR IN YOUR HOME CHANGES LIVES

“Our son is an incredibly hard worker with a neurologically based learning disability. When he was “drowning” in math nearly two years ago, we reached out to the owner of Y3K Tutor In Your Home. We watched his grades and self-confidence take off. The tutor’s unimpeachable professionalism and patience have made an enormous difference in our son’s life, allowing him to work toward and maintain consistently high grades. These excellent grades have begun to move him into the mainstream curriculum in just his first year of high school! I have recommended Y3K Tutor In Your Home without hesitation to any and all who ask how all of this happened for a once-tearful child who had despaired of ever “learning like other kids”. I tell them that it’s because the tutor meets children where they are so that they can in their own time and way, get where they want to go. All of our son’s present and former teachers remain delighted and astonished by his growth as an enthusiastic, independent learner, who now faces new challenges “head on”. This is a level of confidence that now informs his every endeavor. We couldn’t be happier and wish the same for all struggling students and worried parents.”
