"During today's session, the student completed his math assignment due tomorrow as well as half of a makeup assignment on inverse trigonometry. Partway through working on the inverse trig assignment, it became clear that there were more basic concepts regarding unit circle trigonometry that needed reviewing first, so we skipped back to that section of the book (and corresponding makeup assignment). Overall, the student is generally quick to grasp new concepts and follow through once he sees the pattern. I think it will help to start at the beginning with the basics, and I hope that he sees his efforts paying off soon. "

"The student and I started our first session by getting to know each other a little bit. I tried to get a sense of his attitude towards the material, whether he finds his class interesting, and what his strengths and weaknesses are with regards to Latin. He seems like a strong student: memorization seems to come fairly easily to him, and he seems to have a thorough grasp of grammatical concepts like agreement. Although his class seems like it will ramp up significantly in difficulty soon, if he continues to really apply himself to mastering the fundamentals, he won't have any trouble. He was studying for a test on Chapter Three of Ecce Romani, so our session focused mostly on review. We started by talking in general about the concept of agreement, and the plural and singular forms of nominative 1st and 2nd declension nouns. We then worked through some of the exercises from his text book. Then, we moved on to practicing translation and reviewing vocabulary. We also talked about strategies for taking Latin tests. Moving forward, I will continue to emphasize grammar and translation fundamentals. I may also bring in extra materials to give him extra practice. "

"I focused on diagramming. A complex passage becomes clear when you make a table or a picture. I also encouraged the student to match things up in a disciplined way. Several questions involved analogies or applications of principles. This disciplined matching makes these questions much simpler."

"The student and I had a really productive session. We worked on reviewing for a high school entrance exam that is coming up. He preformed really well on his readiness pretest, but we pinpointed two areas where he could strengthen his abilities. After we reviewed problems in those areas, I had him teach me the concept. In our last section we are going to make sure no stone is left unturned and that he will pass his test!"

"I assisted the student with his math homework. I helped him through the problems by pointing him in the right direction. After I explained the concepts to him, he had a better understanding of how to approach the problems."

"Today we covered many topics. They include exponent multiplication, division, and the power rule. The student did pretty well. She just needs to remember to not ever have negative exponents in the denominator and if a base has an even power it's always positive. We also then went over the negative and zero property of exponents and scientific notation. I look forward to the next session. "

"We talked about the student's performance in English class. Right now, he is reading Othello. Next session, I said I will bring some materials for Othello so that we can begin to read Act III together. I also had him to read a passage and write an essay to get a gauge of his reading/writing skills."

"The student is wrapping up a group project for an introductory research methods course. He had responsibility for the literature review and wanted to walk through steps for the data analysis. They are using chi-square to analyze breast cancer mortality rates from data reported by the government. He also sent me a PowerPoint from his course on his current homework on the topic of simple linear regression, and we went over that concept - how it is used and what the regression equation does. "

"Before the session, she did the final review packet on her own. We went over the questions she had about the review. She mostly had questions on factoring polynomials and trinomials. We also covered solving quadratic equations and inequalities by factoring and by using the quadratic formula. "

"The student was highly focused on problem solving. I included the strategy of using dimensions for conceptualizing the period as being the inverse of frequency (cycles per time). Dimensional analysis is helpful in all facets of physics. The student gets the material quickly once he understands the concepts and has potential to do much better within the class"

"The student brought me up to speed on the requirements of the paper he is writing, and we worked on establishing the main ideas he would focus on. We completed the first body paragraph per the criteria provided, which established the pattern he will follow for the remaining four points. We identified journal articles that support his thesis statement and provide him with the necessary quotes. He struggles with constructing sentences that convey the ideas in his head; he knows what he wants to say, and has great ideas, but can't easily organize it on paper. He has a very positive attitude and is great to work with. "
