Award-Winning Private Trigonometry Tutoring in Newport News, VA

"We reviewed triangles, trig functions, and the unit circle in preparation for the test tomorrow, then went over the review worksheet."

"Today, the student and I worked on applications of trig functions. He knew the acronym SOH-CAH-TOA and used that to solve simple triangle problems and more complex words problems. He told me that he would be given the unit circle and its common values on the test, so we didn't work on memorization of the values. There was a lot of new information today, and I feel he will grasp the concepts better after class on Thursday/Friday. If he has any questions, he will email me."

"This session we covered trig identities, conversion between the 6 trig ratios, and trig equations. I introduced the student to various algebraic manipulations that made the equations far easier to solve. As always, she absorbed all the information very quickly. She was excited that she scored a 37/35 on her most recent quiz and mentioned she was the only person in the class to get the extra credit question correct. Coincidentally, I had just gone over that problem in the tutoring session before she took the quiz, so it worked out well. I'm determined to help her maintain an A average this final marking period."

"We studied the graphs for various trig functions, including their shapes, periodicity, wavelength, frequency, etc."
