"Reviewed -er and -ir verbs quickly from two weeks ago, then worked on the chapters review and looked at question words, the verb ser (to be) and professions - so that he is able to ask what someone does, etc."

"We discussed why algebra is useful for life, practiced more algebra equations with variables in the fractions, and then progressed to equations with variables in the denominators of the fractions. We practiced it a long way and a short way, to learn how to check the answer from each. Finally, we practiced some science games online. "

"The student worked on solving linear equations with substitution. Then he worked ahead of his math class and solved linear equations with elimination. The student reviewed geometry for a test involving parallel lines, angles, and using algebra to find angles."

" The student and I kept working for her test tomorrow. Today we worked on a couple word problems which dealt with applying the angle of elevation concept to everyday objects. We then spent the majority of the time working on problems of the form trig function (theta) = value, where the trig function and value are known and we have to work backwards to find the theta. These problems are very difficult - there is no straightforward procedure to solve them, but rather requires an understanding of what the equation means. That kind of understanding takes a while to acquire, but I gave her a series of steps which will hopefully help her think in the right direction."

"We covered one section in Chapter 4 about complex numbers. We had to graph complex numbers, take their absolute vale, and make sure they had real denominators. She has an exam on Tuesday which will cover Chapter 4 so we will review Chapter 4 during our next session. I told her to do as many odd problems from Chapter 4 during her break so that she can check her answers in the back. She will be able to use notes on the exam so we will work on exam notes during our next session."

"Worked on a comparative reading session, which is usually a weak point. The student started doing better when he read for comprehension, and answered the questions on the first passage immediately after reading it, leaving the comparison questions till the end. He will take a practice test Thursday."

"We started off by coding the assignment we'd gone over last time and familiarizing the student with Eclipse. We worked through debugging some errors that occurred. We then moved on to her new assignment where the primary focus was on working through the logic required by the problem. I pushed the student to try and recall past things we had discussed and how to use theme."

"Today's topic was the convergence and divergence of integrals. The student is pretty good at solving these. She gets into a bind when she has to evaluate the limit of the integral. Once again, I think she is uncomfortable with limits from Calculus I. More practice with limits will help her overcome her apprehension. During the session, I would solve the problem up until it is reduced into a limit, then I would let her solve it from that point. This will give her more practice with evaluating limits."

"Today's session focused on the use of Excel. I had the girls work on two separate menus that they designed. They learned the basics of formatting, entering numbers, and using basic equations to make combined orders."

"The student and I covered iteration, array lists, and other collection-type concepts. We went over some questions from his previous exam and it seems like he understood the material fairly well. I plan on following through with some extra work tonight and I don't have any concerns from the session. "

"This session was taken up with an optimization exercise. We took last weeks program, and Tried to trim as many iterations off of it as possible. We started with around 400,000+ iterations, and finished up with the program only needing around 2900. The student had several good ideas, and was doing a lot of coding without prompting. I am pleased with her progress. We also both engaged in research, me on StackOverflow, and she using some of her classmates' ideas, and incorporated both into the algorithm."
