September Surprise: SEVEN Best Tutoring Awards (An All-Time Record)

By

Not long ago we were notified that Y3K Tutor In Your Home has earned an all-time record breaking seven different awards honoring our tutoring and test preparation services. These awards presented to us over this past year are from various cities, towns, regions, categories, and magazines/newspapers. No other tutoring company or individual tutor has received this amount of accolades for their educational services in one given year. If a tutoring service can earn one award, it is a major accomplishment and the highlight of their career. However to win SEVEN awards for our tutoring in a single year is overwhelming and truly a career defining moment.

We know that each of your votes has to be earned. To the thousands that have voted for Y3K Tutor In Your Home as your favorite tutoring company, we thank you so much for choosing us. Each and every tutoring session, we will continue to give you our undivided 100% effort and focus to guide your student to where you want them to be. Y3K Tutor In Your Home will make you proud that you voted for us earlier this year and will continue to earn your votes next year.

Our Origin & 20th Anniversary

By

It was during a car ride in early 2003 that the idea was created to form a new type of educational resource for children. An educational resource that would allow students to succeed at any academic level and have them to grow to their maximum potential. The concept of one-on-one tutoring sessions with a highly qualified teacher done the right way, who reports directly to the parents. 100% honest and unfiltered, telling you exactly what your child needs to get to where you want them to be. All without bureaucratic superintendents, principals, supervisors, and directors getting in the way of your student’s success. The idea in 2003 was that none of these office workers with fancy titles would interfere with your student’s progress by censoring your tutor, ordering them what to say and what to do regardless if it was the best method or not. We created the concept of teaching students to their own unique learning styles, all while reporting directly to the parents.

The concept created in 2003 was that associating the words “education” and “fun” in the same sentence was possible. The idea that telling jokes and laughter goes hand in hand with educational success. No teaching to the middle. No leaving students behind. No allowing bored gifted students to coast along uninspired. Students that were previously ignored, forgotten, or falling through the cracks would now have an ally. This invention we proudly presented to the world for the first time in early 2003 was Y3K Tutor In Your Home.

Twenty years later we are still going strong. It is now our 20th anniversary we are celebrating this academic year. However, we are really celebrating you (the students and families) over the last 20 years for allowing us to continue pursuing our educational mission.

Happy 20th Anniversary!

By

This 2023-2024 school year is very special for Y3K Tutor In Your Home as it is our 20th school year in business. It is said that if a business can last two years, then they really have something to offer. With 20 years in business, we know for sure that we have made it. However it is really the students and families that we have helped succeed and grow on their learning journey that are the reason we have made it. All of the hard working children we have served over the past 20 years has allowed Y3K Tutor In Your Home to be so successful as an organization and number one rated educational resource.

Best Tutoring Honor – Y3K Tutor In Your Home

RIP SAT?

By

The coronavirus caused school closures which forced the cancellation of spring SAT testing for about 1 million first-time test-takers, planning to enter college in 2021. The June 6, 2020 test session is the latest to be canceled. Just when you thought the SAT and all the stress and undue pressure it causes students was put to an end, the SAT people have come up with a way to stay alive.

The company that runs the SAT is working on a back up plan for future testing dates. A home version of the SAT college entrance exam is being prepared in case schools remain closed into the fall. Instead of a paper and pencil test given under proctors’ supervision, the home version would be digital and rely on “remote proctoring.” That could include using the computer’s camera and microphone to monitor movement or talking.  It will remain to be seen if this method could work without the possibility of mass cheating.

SAT & ACT Not Required

By

High school students rejoice. Due to the coronavirus, a growing number of universities are now dropping the SAT and ACT requirement for fall 2021 admissions, including Boston University and University of California. Currently the list is about 51 universities and colleges that have removed the ACT/SAT requirement for the fall of 2021 and some are even extending the ban through the spring of 2022.

Breaking News: SAT Canceled

By

Due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the College Board has announced that the SAT and SAT subject tests are canceled until further notice. Makeup exams for the March 14, 2020 testing date that was then postponed until March 28, 2020 are now officially canceled.  They have also canceled May 2, 2020 and June 6, 2020 testing sessions. Also eliminated are makeup tests for the originally scheduled March 25, 2020 SAT School Day administration and SAT School Day sessions on April 14, 2020 and April 28, 2020. PSAT sessions scheduled for April are canceled and will not take place this spring at all.

Students who already registered for May, whose March test centers were closed, or who do not receive March scores because of any irregularities will receive refunds. In May, students registered for June can transfer their registration to one of the fall SAT administrations for free. Students who want to cancel their SAT registration instead can get a refund by contacting their customer service.
