Parents Correcting Homework & Teachers

October 3, 2013 By Y3K

In the long run, it is not helpful when parents constantly correct their child’s homework before they turn it in. Correcting your student’s homework gives teachers a false impression and ultimately hurts your child.

Teachers use homework to decide which students need more review, which are ready to move on, and whether the lesson was effective.

Newton Parent Testimonial

“I cannot say enough good things about Y3K. The owner has tutored both my son and daughter through elementary, middle, and now high school. His skill, warmth and flexibility have enabled both of my children to address their challenges and achieve their goals. He is engaging and knowledgeable across subjects, and is also able to teach study habits and organization skills, even when there is resistance! 🙂 He is a complete professional, and willing to go above and beyond the call of duty to attend school meetings as an articulate advocate. He has had a truly significant influence on my children’s academic success and self esteem, and has been a great resource for me as a single parent. His dedication, humor, and abilities as a teacher make him not only an extremely gifted tutor, but also an excellent mentor and role model for my young teens. I give Y3K my highest recommendation!”
