"Introduced polar coordinates, graphing polar equations, and changing coordinate system from Cartesian to polar and back."

"We went over the basic problems covered on the exam. I explained to her shortcuts and strategies, steps, and how to make sure she gets the right solution."

"The student and I finished going over his math homework, and I am optimistic about his math score on the ACT. I have taught him all there is to know regarding more difficult mathematical concepts, and I have made him practice enough to the point where he makes minimal simple mistakes. We proceeded to review ACT English, and I am similarly confident that he will score well, although he does miss questions on topics I have lectured. He will need to review his notes to make sure he scores well. I then proceeded to teach him much more advanced writing concepts as well as explaining the new format of ACT writing, and I believe that he is prepared. He knows how to structure and organize an argument, how to implement advanced vocabulary and how to include deeper elements that add sophistication to his writing. I assigned some ACT English for homework, and I look forward to continuing review with him."

"The student has quite a few assignments, tests, and quizzes coming up. We spent our time working on his algebra homework and completing his test corrections from his previous test. We also began working on his biology processing assignment. After he completes the processing assignment, he will have some prof. comm. homework to complete, then just studying left to do for the week."

"The student had a homework assignment that she wanted to work on. She is learning about altitudes, and using the altitude to find the length of the sides of the triangle. Her homework was quite long and it took most of the session. She was a little bit confused about how to set up the proportions with the altitude and the sides of the triangle. We did a lot bit of extra practice with that, and I gave her some general guidelines to follow to help her set up the ratio. At the end of the session we went over the list of topics that are going to be on her midterm, and I gave her some practice material so she can begin to review for it."

"The student is going to have the test tomorrow on polynomials. We walked through the factorization, completing squares, square roots and quadratic formula to solve for polynomial equations. He did a really good job in the tutoring session."

"This week, the student and I reviewed the concepts of interference and diffraction within the study of optics. Our session was productive, as we answered all of the concepts and applied problems she was assigned. When she asked about a particular concept, I found that using analogies was an effective approach to understanding the concept. As always, she was engaged and enthusiastic with reviewing the material."

"The student and I worked on his Physics homework and his Algebra homework in the tutoring session. His physics homework covered wave velocity (v = wavelength * frequency). Some of the problems incorporated the period of the wave as well (period = 1/f). He was comfortable with wave velocity; he just needed practice rewriting the equation to solve for the variable required. We spent the majority of our time on his algebra homework, which covered factoring quadratics. He is good at factoring quadratics, and more practice will only help him become more confident. Our next tutoring session will be in two weeks. "

"The student and I worked last night to prepare for the math test that he has today, covering working with exponents and polynomials. One mistake that he made several times was forgetting to raise the coefficient to the power as well as the variable [e.g. (2x)(2x)=2x squared]. He also had some issues keeping track of the various terms when squaring binomials. We made it through the practice test with time to spare, even after he solved some extra problems that I wrote for him, so we ended with some practice doing mental math, focusing on squaring numbers, multiplying and dividing by 5, and averaging sets of numbers. He enjoyed the mental math more than I expected, and did well. We will continue to do some work on this to speed up his recall of basic calculations and to practice the focus required to do more complex mental calculations."

"The student read a level G book for the first time and we completed phonics and comprehension activities afterwards. She and I did addition and subtraction word problems together. She is getting better at using adding and subtracting strategies, but needs to work on explaining the strategy she is using. We'll work on this in our next session. "

"The student and I went over her lab assignment. I left her with a six-question study assignment to either work on in her downtime or go over in a future meeting."
