Award-Winning Private Finance Tutoring in Orange, CA

She and I reviewed Language Arts and Reading sections of the test that she had completed for homework. We went through the questions in detail to find patterns in the types of questions being asked and to determine where to focus our studies. For homework, she will complete a vocabulary test and review some additional materials.

Today, we went over a practice test for his math class. We specifically went over the square root, quadratic, factorization, completing the squares methods for solving quadratic equations, and knowing when to use each method for a given problem.

Concepts covered: financial statement analysis, ratio comparison to prior years, and industry averages. The student is doing well and has a good attitude.

The student and I focused entirely on drilling the logical reasoning section - she did great! We limited each question to 90 seconds; for the majority of them she finished within 70. She scored 19 out of 26 which is a great improvement over previous scores. Next time will focus on reading and logic games.

We went over concepts regarding the top front end, keyholes, and hole punching. We went over 15-20 questions in an in-depth manner and explained why each answer choice was wrong and what made the correct answer choice right. We then went over study strategies and the resources that are available that would be good to use leading up to the test. Also, we made a sample examination test schedule.

We went over the assignment and eventually found some review articles of the books the student is summarizing. We then went over an assignment requirement on the ways in which the professor's experiences with the books we were reviewing may have affected the arguments in the book. Finally, we went over an initial draft and worked on identifying strong details in sentences as the basis for good writing.
