Janine: Hoboken tutor
Certified Tutor
I spent 15 years in the classroom and was met with many challenging learning experiences. I welcome the opportunity to put some of that experience to work with Varsity Tutors. I enjoy meeting the individual needs of my students and challenging them to be their best.... Establish rapport while attempting to get the first lesson done. Ask questions about their hobbies, interests, extracurricular activities, and just basically get to know them.

The student has a chemistry quiz tomorrow and a test coming up. The material focused on writing and balancing equations. She was having a little trouble at first understanding how to predict a single/double replacement equation, but by the end of the session, she seemed to have a pretty good handle on it. We also spent some time on naming compounds and practicing how to balance an equation. We also spent a little time on the solubility rules because, in the homework, it looks like the teacher wanted the student to know how to label the physical state of the compound.

The student and I read a reading passage, and focused mainly on comprehension and retelling rather than answering multiple choice questions. The student found retelling a little challenging, but we worked on strategies and tips that will assist her in this skill.

Today, we continued to discuss projectile motion and the problems that can be assessed using this concept. I had prepared some projectile problems this week that were slightly different than ones that we had worked previously in order to help the student see as many different types of problems as possible. Before we actually started solving each problem, we identified the key words and pieces of information that were critical to solving the problem correctly. I had the student work through the problems by himself while I solved the problems on my page in order to see what parts of the question he is struggling in. He seems much more comfortable solving any projectile motion problem. We then discussed some issues that the student was having on the new material that his class is learning involving Newton's Second Law of Motion(F=ma). The student seems quite confident with the new material up to this point. For next week, we will continue working with solving F=ma problems.
