Recent Plano Tutoring Session Notes
I was really impressed with the student's algebra skills, especially in fraction manipulation. All the right skills are there, we just need to apply them in the right situations. I'm putting together a worksheet to show him that there are really only about 15 different types of calculus problems at the stage he's at, and then we can work on not only practicing solving those types, but identifying how different looking problems really are the same and fit into one of the general cases or "rules" he needs to follow. Memorization will come through practice, and answering all of his questions along the way. I think meeting twice a week for 1.5 hours will be the right amount of time for this work. I'm really looking forward to continuing to work with the student.

The student and I worked on his study guide for his history exam, paying particular attention to the written part of the exam. I shared some tips with the student for studying as well as test taking, particularly brainstorming before starting to write.

I met the student, and we started reading a book that was a little too hard, and then switched to some funny poems, which he seemed to enjoy, and which were more appropriate difficulty-wise. Also, I think the poems are a good way to practice his visualization strategy.

The student and I worked on math practice problems in preparation for her test coming up in the following week. We also worked on authentic writing by explaining how to change an improper fraction to a mixed number as well as explaining how to compare fractions. Authentic writing was shown by writing the steps in sequence in order to solve a problem.

The student and I went through verbs for S and T. He conjugated them. Then we worked on more accusative worksheets. I also made him some materials for the next ten days to work on. I left directions with him and the answer keys with his father. I'm going to work with him to make him feel more comfortable with longer sentences and figuring out what a sentence means even if you don't know all the words.

For the Ch2 test tomorrow, we went over the practice test and a few concepts. She also has a history test tomorrow, so we spent some time studying for that as well. It seems like she is pretty comfortable with the material for both tests tomorrow.
