Recent Hollywood Tutoring Session Notes
Today the student and I covered some concepts of number sense involving radicals, fractions and decimals. We reviewed how to estimate the value of a square root that is not a perfect square. We also reviewed how to put a list of numbers that are different, into order from least to greatest. I feel like she is really learning a lot and her number sense is improving. I also gave her a pre-test to take while we cannot meet for the next week because she will be out of town. The practice test has about 40 questions, but if she does a page a day, it should be very manageable. I think this will give me a much better idea of what areas we need to focus on until school starts in August.

The student and I went over the structure for the AP exam. Since this is the first AP exam she is taking we went over of test taking strategies as well. We went through the MC section and discussed the different type of questions. We also went through the essay portion and went over what the board is looking for in an essay. We also went over how she should be allotting for both the multiple-choice and essay section - this being her first exam, I'm sure this'll be one of things we address most.

The student had worked on some English practice problems before our session and got the majority of them right. However, he said that he had taken his time, so I'm trying to focus on giving him strategies to get through problems more quickly. We also spent time on math and science. We began a list of all the math formulas he will need to memorize. I asked him to do a full science portion of the practice test, timed, before our next session.
