Session Summaries by Tutors

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

"We reviewed the semester's concepts to prepare for the midterm. I think it would be extremely helpful for the student if he became more organized. When we started the session he was unaware that he had been given a review that day in class. "

"I went over the section on systems of linear inequalities and showed the student how to solve them. We reviewed a sheet (I had made a hard copy) of unit 8, and then he proceeded to take his unit 8 test - he got 100. We will review for his semester test next week, and he will, hopefully, have time to take it."

"We worked on multiple and simple regression and talked about the feedback the student received on her project proposal. We both are wanting to further understand the meaning of variables her professor has provided for the final project, but will have additional feedback before our next session. "

"The student and I worked through several problems she had questions about covering geometric and arithmetic sequences. She was doing really well with the material so I tried to emphasize why she had the right idea on the topics she was unsure about. "

"Today the student and I worked on problems involving synthetic division to find factors. We also talked about how to know whether a function has real zeros. It was a solid session today, and I encouraged her to continue practicing the synthetic division procedures."

"The student and I spent this session working on integers. She had just taken a test that she had done very well on so that was encouraging to hear. We only had one struggle, and that was working with grasping the concept of subtracting a negative number. We worked on changing both signs to a plus to show that it is addition, and we used a number line to help better understand the concept. She has a positive attitude toward the material as she can apply it to real world situations, which makes it a lot more fun."

"Today, the student completed her assignment on related rates and the discussion questions for the following week. She needs to practice recognizing the variables for the word problems, but is showing great improvement in her algebra skills!"

"Today, we covered inverse trig functions, finding domain and range for certain functions, and using the calculator to determine the rounded angles for the inverse trig of a certain value. We also drew graphs that represented the trig functions."

"We continued to work on solving equations and today's set of problems involved integers, decimals, and fractions. The student demonstrates a good working knowledge of how to solve equations using inverse operations from our previous session, but required review of number operations for fractions and decimals. All problems required some support and reminders regarding the math concepts behind adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing fractions and decimals. We focused on zooming into operations that are happening in order to determine the appropriate inverse. We also addressed how to organize his solving of equations into legible steps to keep his work clear."

"In this session we covered how to find the area between two curves as well as volumes of revolution using the disk, washer, and shell methods. The student was not having any particular struggles, but simply wanted to go over the material in more detail. The student remained motivated throughout the session, and at times even took over when he saw how to do something correctly before I did. We reviewed strategies on how to set up volume problems, and I recommended he continue to practice them until our next session. "

"The student and I discussed a few questions from his past exam and he is confident he did really well. To prepare for the upcoming chapter, we did a brief introduction into 3 dimensional shapes with an emphasis on lateral and surface area of prisms, cylinders, cones and pyramids. "
