Award-Winning Private Pre-Calculus Tutoring in Lincoln Park, IL

"The student and I worked on Order of Operations during today's session. We also went over the homework I gave her. In regards to the homework, she did well with it. At times, the student has a difficult time separating words from numbers. She has developed strategies over the years to combat this problem. The student will read the question or problem over and think about how to solve it over a period of time. When we were working on the order of operations problems, the student was able to complete 95% of the problems. Once the terms became numerous, she had a difficult time and her frustration level was being raised. We moved away from math and watched some science experiments on YouTube. The student enjoys science immensely so she was able to relax. For the next session, we will work on linear equations with one variable. "

"We have a lot of ground to cover to make up for the lack of Calc 1 background, but I think we'll do ok. We went over some basic differentiation and integration, up through u-substitution. Good luck on the test on Wednesday!"

"The student held a great attitude during today's session. He successfully completed all material assigned to him over the weekend and barely missed two questions! He is becoming more detail oriented in his math and beginning to show his work very well. He does well at mental math and grasping new concepts very quickly! We began to introduce new math concept such as inequalities and multi-step equations with variables. He has some practice materials to prepare for Wednesday's session. "

"The student and I started off with reviewing the Laws of Exponents. It took a bit of practice, but we were able to tag down the concepts. From there we reviewed further into his book with mostly everything already under his belt until we reached Absolute Value graphs. We worked on those for the rest of the time we had. "
