"The student's class had just finished up a section test and is now transitioning to polynomials. He had very little homework on this subject and what he did have was focused on recognizing different polynomial equation forms and sketching polynomials. When he finished his homework, I decided to introduce more content on his new subject such as quadratic equations, locating roots, concavity, and a brief intro on complex numbers. I did not want to introduce too much because I was unsure on the specific direction his teacher is going to take him, so we focused on the quadratic equation and its significance."

"We went over moment-generating functions and a few ANOVA topics. She was well-organized and it was a productive session."

"Student 1 and I worked on his pre made worksheet to help him get prepared for his math quiz. He also worked on his daily assignment. We finished with reviewing multiplying 2-digit numbers by 4-digit numbers. Student 2 and I worked on math. First we worked on line plots. Then we worked on multiplication facts."

"The student and I worked through her personal statement for her application. Prior to our meeting, I asked that she send along her statement and discovered that she had mistakenly believed that the limit was 5,000 words instead of 4,500 characters. Thus, she ended up with a 4 1/2 page statement instead of a 1 1/2 page essay! Having alerted her to this discrepancy, we had a very productive session where I discussed with her what she hoped to get across in her statement, explained the initial changes I had made, and made sure to emphasize that ultimately, only her opinion matters as to what she feels must be included in her statement. We will continue to pass back and forth edits and I will work diligently to help her get the original statement down to 4,500 characters without sacrificing her voice or the vibrancy of her writing."

"The student did great in her reading today. She read "Luka Plays Baseball" fluently and with very few errors. We choral read the book together to work on reading more quickly. We worked on her spelling words. She wrote them down on her paper and then wrote them on my back while I guessed which words she was writing. I wrote on her back also to have her guess the words."

"We covered the concept of functions. We discussed the definition of a function, the difference between a function and a relation, the vertical line test to visually identify the graph of a function, and how to evaluate sets of data and equations of functions. After we talked about these concepts, we worked several elementary examples together, and then we worked real function problems from previous exams. The student was attentive and engaged, and she learned the concepts quickly. She should work problems in Chapter 10 of the prep book for extra practice before our next session."

"The student and I went over her math homework that she was having trouble in. The homework focused on how to solve proportions and how to solve them in word problems. I gave her a formula that she seemed to be more comfortable with. By the end of the session, she was able to solve most of the problems by herself."

"The student is a bright, very pleasant 3rd grader. He showed a lot of knowledge on every subject. He participated very well, completing all work asked. We did a "book walk" and reviewed the meaning of the highlighted parts of the story. We read a story, re-read the story, and wrote four facts found in the story. We then read about the periodic table and completed a questionnaire. We also worked on a math problem."

"We reviewed the first of six problem sets for the student's online calculus course. The material we covered was the chapter on limits and how to apply the limit definition of instantaneous rate of change as well as the secant method."

"We covered linear equations. We covered both standard and slope/intercept forms and how to convert between the two. We then focused on slope/intercept and reviewed topics like acquiring main characteristics, how to obtain the equations from multiple situations, and how to find the intersection of two linear equations. I went through each topic in detail with step by step instructions and plenty of examples. When I felt the students were ready, I had them try some practice problems on their own. For the most part, they handled the material with relative ease. They had the most trouble when it came to distinguishing between x-coordinates and y-coordinates. After some detailed review, they had a better understanding. I ended the session going over some last minute tips on how to approach the test. They take the test on Saturday. "

"Today we covered the basic concepts involved in finding the area below a curve, as well as the area between two or more curves. We also covered the basics of volumes created by both rotating a curve around an axis as well as by being given different shapes. Next session, we will continue discussion on three-dimensional shapes such as washers, with the following session focused on practice problems."

"Unit exam on transformations is tomorrow, so studying for this exam was the focus of this session. The student seemed pretty confident we covered the similarities and differences between the notation of each transformation as well as the resulting images of each. We made note of all of the rules derived from the basic transformations within each category. Translation was the last transformation covered, and he felt like he had it down the most. "
