PARENTS AGREE: Y3K TUTOR IN YOUR HOME CHANGES LIVES #9

By

The owner has been tutoring my kids – now in 10th grade – since they were in elementary school.  The specific needs have varied over the years and Jerry has always been able to adapt his teaching and style to provide what was needed.  He is able to provide support across all the academic subjects – but just as critically – he has helped with organizational skills and planning.  And he has remained even and cool-headed in the face of difficult teenagers, resistant to getting help.  In the face of reactions that would fell the most intact ego, Jerry has maintained his sense of humor.  I can’t recommend Y3K Tutor In Your Home highly enough.

PARENTS AGREE: Y3K TUTOR IN YOUR HOME CHANGES LIVES #8

By

The Y3K Tutor In Your Home owner provides weekly tutoring for my middle-schooler who is bright but struggles with social pragmatics and rigidity, making public school a difficult learning environment. His creative and non-threatening approach is very effective in helping my son think critically about his assignments and his teachers’ expectations. In addition to developing his writing and language skills, he is also able to feed his insatiable appetite for complex math by expanding on the basic concepts covered in the school curriculum. He is an excellent academic tutor and is also very organized and dependable. I highly recommend him for a variety of learners and learning needs.

Back To School Success #2: Agenda Books

By

Agenda books are great for recording and keeping track of homework assignments. The best agenda books to use are the ones that have the date and each subject printed daily. Y3K Tutor In Your Home strongly suggests that you stay away from the planners without the date and subject names pre-printed in each box. We have observed that the unmarked agenda books cause many organizational problems for students. If the subject names are not pre-printed, the students tend to focus on writing the subject name when they should be listening and writing the assignment. Or if students don’t bother to write in the subject name, they sometimes are not sure which assignments are for which class after they have written them. When dates are not pre-printed, some students will write assignments on various pages and have them scattered throughout the book.
