My son has ADHD, Anxiety, Dyslexia AND a learning disability. He's always attended private schools for learning disabled children, but when we had to move, public school and an IEP were the only option. I called VT in desperation because he was failing across the board and was so distressed. I know he just needed the right environment in order to thrive. After a couple tearful sessions with the VERY PATIENT tutor, my son began to "get it". Once he did, there was no stopping him!

The information in those documents can reveal what is already known about the challenges your student is facing, what has already been attempted and to what level of success, and what efforts are currently being made in the classroom. Their private instructor can incorporate this information into their own approach to ensure consistency in the supports provided, improving the effectiveness of the instruction.

The student and I had a great session! She successfully completed another homework assignment that focused on concepts from chapter 9 (and these included the topics of soil composition, conservation, and degradation within the U.S. and across countries, as well as farming/ agricultural techniques, farming strategies, etc. She performed very well and received a score greater than 90%. In addition, she completed a required discussion post, and also reviewed discussion posts related to her leadership class.

Executive Functioning Tutoring review by Jonathan in Buffalo, NY
We completed the remainder of the ratios. The student worked through them with me and we discussed them at length. We typed out what we discussed into the document, and he was complete with his assignment at the end of the session. He simply needs to reformat a few places and can clean up any spots for spacing errors and it should be ready to turn it in. At the end session we will work on the remainder of the Excel problems for TVM. The prior topic was quite difficult and took so much time owing to the complexity of the reporting from the nonprofit accounting. We got through it all and were able to produce interesting metrics that shed light on the student's home organization.

We reviewed homework problems including Little's law, flow rate, capacity, and utilization rates. The student has great mastery of the subject, and just needs a little clarification in some areas, which I will be happy to provide. She's a joy to tutor.

Executive Functioning Tutoring review by Jeffrey in Buffalo, NY
We reviewed the student's homework assignments that she turned in and explained the omissions and mistakes, and recalculated the solutions. We went through some of the project management concepts and I sent her a link for a free MS Project software. This should allow her to enter tasks and durations and build some of the charts she needs.
