...to successful learning is often finding the missing pieces in a student's understanding. Unlike in a group learning environment, in which "covering the material" is paramount, in tutoring we get to explore the individual student's understanding, spending more time on the material that needs additional explanation or practice and less time on the material that the student already understands. This lessens boredom, increases comfort with the subject, enhances understanding, and ultimately, leads to improved performance...

The student and I practiced a analytical reasoning and logic games section. We attempted to increase his accuracy in logic games and his ability to pick out details on certain types of logical reasoning questions.
This session the students continued to work on logic games. We went over a variety of games, starting with some basic linear games to make sure that their skills in doing these types of games are improving. The students seemed to be doing better setting up the games and making inferences, so we moved on to a new kind of game that we hadn't touched yet - sequencing games. We did a few practice hypotheticals setting up sequencing games and moved on to actual games. After doing a few they seemed to be more comfortable with these, so we started on some grouping games as well.

We also discussed approaches for specific types of questions and we briefly touched on some LR and Logic Games points and on overall test strategy.
