Recent Tutoring Session Reviews
We went over logarithms and exponential functions: solving, simplifying, and expanding them. The student showed a refreshing curiosity. I reiterated the rules of these problems at the end so the student could review in my absence when the material was fresh. The student needed help with applying the new and unfamiliar log/ exponential rules. I simplified the rules into more approachable terms, and he seemed to understand better.

The student and I worked on preparation for his AP exam. We worked on practice questions and discussed a topic with which she has some struggles -- interpreting graphs and derivatives and integrals. She is more comfortable now with the topic but still needs to work on it more. I sent her copies of several AP exam questions in this vein, along with answer explanations for further practice. She has done quite a bit of test prep both in class so we addressed graph interpretation and some final test-taking suggestions.

The student and I worked on geometric constructions and locus today. We practiced constructing: congruent line segments, congruent angles, perpendicular bisectors, angle bisectors, perpendicular lines through a point on a line segment, and perpendicular lines through a point not on the segment. For locus, we practiced vertical lines, horizontal lines, and circles. She also practiced writing the equations for loci including circle equations and linear equations.

We discussed the student's homework assignment that involved using Excel to do a multiple regression analysis. We went through "best practices" for preparing data for the analysis, how to perform the analysis, and how to use the resulting regression equation to predict new values. We also discussed how to interpret the various regression coefficients.

I met with the student today and it was a better day because I was able to hear from his teachers and I was able to work with him better than before. We started with his science, which was graphing of times and amounts of water rose during that time. From there he worked on his LA homework, which was about coordinating conjunctions. It was double sided, and he had done the front but not the back. He corrected two on the front and then completed the back. From there he worked on his 24 math homework questions. He did a little better tonight on these as they were problems with variables in them. He was much better today.
