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.

STUDENTS AGREE: Y3K TUTOR IN YOUR HOME CHANGES LIVES

About 2 weeks ago, I tried out the Y3K Tutor In Your Home tutoring service not knowing anything about the service or its tutors.  I needed a tutor to help me with the math portion of the TEAS nursing exam.  I met with the owner and was absolutely impressed and happy with the service that I received.  He went out of his way to work around my schedule.  He accurately observed my strengths and weaknesses and developed a plan of attack that best suited me and my study habits.  He also was able to breakdown each formula and put it into very simple terms/steps that were easy for me to execute.  After the test, I relayed the good news of my 10 point jump from the previous test result to him and he was really pleased to hear about my success.  I am very content with my experience with my tutor.  I highly recommend and I will be going back any chance I get.

The Y3K Tutor In Your Home owner has worked with my high school student for the past two years, helping with executive function, study skills, organization, time management, and homework coaching.  I am so grateful for his ability to act as coach, cheerleader and drill sergeant, often all at once. He enters our home with great energy no matter how late it is or how many students he may already have seen, and is instantly asking my student about last week’s test or homework assignment. He remembers the details of my student’s assignments – often better than the student does! The tutor presses gently but persistently until the results or outcomes are revealed. He has helped our student understand the importance of taking homework seriously and keeping up with it. He has contributed greatly to our student’s ability to track the volume of work and plan ahead for the coming week. This tutor is able to hold our student accountable and encourage the best effort in a way we, the parents, cannot do without a huge fight. We’re really grateful for his work and highly recommend him without reservations.

Time Devoted

By

It’s not the amount of time you devote, but what you devote to the time that counts.

SAT Advantage

By

Although the SAT tests are optional to get in to many colleges, high test scores can be an advantage when applying. Many college admissions specialists recommend high school students take the exams only if they expect to score well. Strong scores on the SAT and ACT exams will help you, but these colleges won’t hold it against you for not taking them.

Death of the SAT?

By

More and more colleges each year realize the SAT is not an effective measure of student intelligence. The list of schools no longer requiring the SAT grows by the year. Several colleges including UMass Lowell and Salem State University have made the main SAT and ACT tests optional.
