Recent Westchester Tutoring Session Notes
The student and I worked on her calculus homework and went ahead a bit in the reading. She was very proficient in taking the derivative of simple functions, but when it came to more complex ones she had a difficult time comprehending the rules. This is expected though and I expect her progress to continue as the class progresses.

The student said that reading gives her the most trouble, so we worked on a reading section. We discovered that it is really only the natural science passage that causes problems, so we devised a new approach for that section. She is now going to start by skimming the passage and underlining key terms. She will then go to the questions without reading the passage as a whole. She will begin with questions that provide a line number and go on from there. We tested out this method, and her score improved. She will continue to practice this strategy this week. If she has time, she will take the reading section of the university review online test. If not, we will work on this next time. I will need to bring new materials for next week's session.

We reviewed factoring, and then I gave him some new instruction on completing the square and quadratic equations. By 5 he was able to do all problem types, but he agreed that more practice was necessary to do well on the quiz.
