90%-100% of graduates at most high schools throughout Massachusetts meet the minimum number of courses in English, math, science and other core subjects that state guidelines call for. However the Boston public school system has ignored those guidelines, called MassCore. MassCore standards include four years of English and math, three years of science and social studies, and two years of foreign language.
Instead Boston Public Schools have opted to keep lower standards for earning a diploma than the rest of Massachusetts. For example, Boston requires only three years of math instead of the four required at schools following MassCore. The reason for the lower standards is so they can increase high school graduation rates. Many claim that these lower standards de-value their diploma compared to most other communities that have significantly higher standards.
Lower Boston standards have some major consequences. In 2017 only 31% of Boston high school graduates met the state’s MassCore guidelines according to state data, putting the rest behind their peers at other Massachusetts schools. 50% of Boston high school graduates who enroll in college fail to earn degrees within six years, according to a report by the Boston Private Industry Council. Many of these students that have earned a high school diploma with lower standards, felt academically unprepared for college. A state report showed that nearly 75% of Boston graduates who went on to community college required at least one remedial course.
Jerry is a fabulous math tutor!! First and foremost, he truly knows math. He is very skilled at communicating high-level mathematical concepts in a way that any child will understand. He returns calls very quickly, will accommodate your schedule, and is wonderful with my teenage son. If you need a math tutor, you cannot go wrong with Jerry!!

The Y3K Tutor In Your Home owner has been an amazing tutor for my son. I am so glad we got to know him. Right now he is helping my son with math. I like how he finds multiple ways of teaching something, specifically for how my son will understand. I like that he can cover any subject if he needs to. I love how he includes organization and planning skills during the class. Our tutor can adapt to any child and create a special bond between them. Overall he is an amazing tutor and friend to my child.

For light, go directly to the source of the light and not any reflections. For education, go directly to the source of education Y3K Tutor In Your Home and not any tutor.
Y3K Tutor In Your Home is a wonderful in home tutoring service. The owner tutors my daughter, Maya. She loves math but needed some math skills reinforced and a challenge as well. He has a wonderful teaching method and helps break down material for better understanding. He brings many approaches to the table and will use the best method for your child. Maya enjoys her tutoring sessions with him.

Compounding interest is money that is added to your bank account over time. It can also be money that is added to your credit card bill or loan so you pay a lot more than you originally borrowed. Teach your kids about how saving money today can grow into something much more over time due to compounding. Also teach them how debts can grow into something larger over time due to compounding. Show them the math behind this concept. If you need help teaching them the math of compounding interest, contact Y3K Tutor In Your Home today.
PARENTS AGREE: Y3K TUTOR IN YOUR HOME CHANGES LIVES
Y3K Tutor In Your Home has been working with our 7-year-old son who was diagnosed with executive function. After only a few sessions I could not believe the difference in his writing and math. I am amazed that in such a short period of time we went from not being able to read anything our son wrote, to having him write complete legible sentences. My son’s tutor has a natural ability for making children feel comfortable. He also shows them that it is OK to make mistakes. I talked to many different people who provided tutoring services and found that their process was very specific and not necessarily tailored to the child and their way of learning. After talking to Jerry I knew our search was over. Jerry is amazing and cares very much for the kids he works with. I cannot thank him enough for his hard work, dedication, advice and most of all the hope that he has given me for my son and his future.
