Pollard Middle School Testimonial – Needham, MA

Needham Parent Testimonial

“Y3K Tutor In Your Home has been a great support system for my son from elementary school through middle school. Helping him not only with the actual schoolwork but the organizational skills that it will take to be successful in school. My son looks forward to his sessions and plans out what he wants to work on so that he will get the maximum benefit. The tutor (who also happens to be the owner) is always willing to help him out in anything. He really knows my son. He also knows how to motivate and get my son back on task. The owner’s flexibility and support has really helped my son learn to enjoy school and not dread it. I would absolutely recommend Y3K Tutor In Your Home for anyone looking for a tutor.”

Brookline Parent Testimonial

“Y3K Tutor In Your Home is the best home tutor service I’ve been able to find and has helped my young son tremendously with his marks. Not only did the tutor arrive on time and offer reasonable rates, but he was warm, friendly and does a great job teaching my son. In fact, my son now looks forward to doing his homework with the tutor and is upset when the session ends. The tutor was very flexible, organized and worked with me to reach our goals. I could not recommend this company more! Give them a try, and you’ll see for yourself why I stick with them.”

MIAA Brings Gymnastics Back To Newton

By

The Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association recently made a decision to reinstate boys’ gymnastics after deciding to eliminate it earlier in the year. The change of heart came about after an uproar of letters and petitions demanding the MIAA bring the sport back. This ruling affects several cities and towns including Y3K Tutor In Your Home’s City of Newton. Both Newton North High School and Newton South High School currently have boys’ gymnastics teams.

Physical Kinesthetic Learners

By

Physical (kinesthetic) learners like to touch, feel and use their hands. They learn best by what they do and experience. They prefer hands on projects.

Students with the physical learning style are likely to use the body and sense of touch to learn about the world around them. It is likely that they enjoy sports, exercise, and other physical activities such as working with their hands. They are more sensitive to the physical world around them and notice textures in clothes or furniture. Physical learners tend to like getting their hands dirty. They would prefer to pull an engine apart and put it back together rather than reading or looking at diagrams about how it works.
