Award-Winning Private ASPIRE Tutoring in Olathe, KS

"Tonight, we worked on the practice test. We did some reading comprehension, and addressed a writing prompt. Tomorrow and Thursday, we will work on the editing sections, and more writing. The student takes the test Tuesday and Wednesday for the first sections, so the work we are doing this week will prepare her for that. Good session. No homework was left since she has school work, and I will see her tomorrow."

"The student and I continued to work on practice problems from the SAT math section, both the multiple choice and fill-in problems. In the course of working these problems, I gave her some tips as to working faster. We did some brief lessons on graphing polynomial functions and solving systems of equations as well. She still struggles some with the geometry questions, but in general she has a good grasp of the material. I advised her to take a few timed practice sessions, so we can get an idea as to whether we need to work on saving time."

"I had all three students do another full set of math sections from a practice SAT. They all either improved or stayed the same, which is fantastic to see because they already had high scores to begin with. Students tend to have a harder time improving once they have a score higher than 600, so their improvement is a great sign. We went over the test and reviewed whatever they had trouble with. Word problems were the biggest area they had trouble in, so we are going to focus a bit on them for our next session. Besides that, there were no specific areas that any of them had a lot of issues with. We also did a quick review on exponents and the rules for them. For our last few math sessions we will continue practicing and giving extra attention to whatever the hardest subject matters are."
