The student and I reviewed math. His attitude was receptive. He needed help processing numbers quickly, and we will continue to work on that in the future. We covered division, and he understood how to do long division very well. He was given several problems, and was able to do them correctly, without help, towards the latter end of the session. I gave him six division problems to do for extra work before our next session.

We will meet again tomorrow.
