Recent Tutoring Session Reviews
This was our last session together. The student wanted to meet for a quick review session before his final exam tomorrow. We worked on a page he was having difficulty with that dealt with multiplying and dividing fractions. I think it was good to also give him some confidence in his abilities before his final math test. I am so very proud of him and all of his work. He has been, by far, my most improved student.

He has a few social studies assignments that have already been assigned as well as some science things that he knows are coming up. His agenda is organized and he is keeping track of all the major assignments.
