HOW TO MAKE KIDS WANT TO READ #2: Comics, Magazines and Newspapers Count

Reading must be fun or a child won’t read it. Not all reading comes in the form of a book. Allow your student to choose comic books, magazines, and newspapers. Superhero comics, graphic novels, sports magazines, MAD Magazine, and the sports section of the newspaper are some of the most exciting reading out there. Encourage them to read these if they hate reading books. Don’t worry that these are not considered “fine classic literature” by all the snobby know-it-alls. Reading is reading and these items are fun. Kids aren’t going to want to read long books with lots of words on the page, they need smaller books with more engaging writing to keep them interested. This is why magazines and comic books are perfect.

PARENTS AGREE: Y3K TUTOR IN YOUR HOME CHANGES LIVES

The owner and head tutor was recommended by my daughter’s Algebra teacher at school. He has been instrumental in helping her as a non-native English speaker, understand the language of the Algebra taught in her school. He also has provided guidance and support in helping her enhance and develop her writing skills. My daughter has developed a trusting and respectful working relationship with him. She knows that she can rely on his expert advice and support on a variety of subjects and fields and is excited about continuing their association upon her return from spring break.

Y3K Tutor In Your Home’s Test Taking Strategies #11: Timed Test – First Do The Easy Ones

Some students go in sequential order of the test and get caught up on a question. They spend extra time on that one question and then run out of time. They end up not answering the last few questions due to lack of time. Not anymore!

The trick to defeating a timed test is to work out of order. Answer the easy questions you know. Skip the hard questions or questions that will take a long time to answer. Then after you have answered all the questions you can, go back and spend the rest of your time on the challenging ones. This way a student will earn a higher test score for answering more correct answers.

Y3K Tutor In Your Home’s Test Taking Strategies #10: Multiple Choice Disaster

Make sure a skipped question is also skipped on the scantron/fill in the bubble page as well. If not everything will be wrong! For example if you skip #8 and answer #9, make sure that #9’s answer is in the right spot and not accidentally in #8’s bubble. When students make this common mistake every answer on the scantron sheet will be wrong from #8 until the end of the test.
