"Today, the student continued his end of the year Math test. He completed double digit multiplication, long and short division and word problems that included addition, subtraction, division and multiplication. He also practiced identifying the correct helping verbs in sentences and identifying the main idea of short passages. "

"We covered vertex/intercept/standard form of parabolas, including how to find the vertex and intercepts in each form and how to change from one form to the other. The student did not seem to pick up the material in class, but once we covered it she seemed much more confident."

"The student started by reading her sight words to me. She got almost all the words right. She read her book to me and flew through that. She moved to reading level 16 for her class reading book. This book was a little bit harder for her. She stumbled through some of the words. We choral read together and then she read by herself. She did much better the second time. She answered a comprehension question about the book. We ended with her reading her sight words to me. "

"We covered dividing and multiplying fractions, inverse operations, and word problems. The student was positive during the session. I gave him a few tips on how multiplication and division are inverses of each other. "

"Today, we worked on finding the altitude of a right triangle and we went over the Pythagorean Theorem. In doing both of these kinds of problems, we had to simplify square roots. The student seems like a very solid student, and if he is able to talk through the problem, he understands it pretty well. If he does make an error, he often catches himself as he goes along. He began the session a little less confident on simplifying square roots. However, by the end of the session, he had a great handle on these, as we practiced many. I was very impressed with how quickly he sees relationships between numbers. This is a huge asset in solving these types of problems. It not only allows him to solve them more quickly, but it allows him to check his work. I am very impressed with him; he is solid student!"

"Today, we reviewed more of the student's homework packet, and I helped guide him to approach the problems and gave him some tips on how to do the problems efficiently. I also showed him how to use the graphing calculator to understand derivatives and finding zeroes of graphs. I also did a review of derivatives of certain functions, as I noticed he struggled with them in the past. After going through many problems, he understood them. Then, I did more implicit differentiation and optimization problems."

"Today was our first session. I discussed with the student the difference she can expect from the middle level to the upper level, which she will be taking. We looked at the math section in great detail. We covered sets, tables and Venn diagrams. We also spent some time looking at lines and angles."

"We added in an extra session this week to help the student prepare for her Chemistry exam. After reviewing a few concepts and strategies with mole conversion, she completed her practice test with much more confidence. I encouraged her to utilize the note sheet the teacher provided and to use triggers to help her remember which process to use to solve the problems."

"Today, the student completed 2 quizzes for his online class. I think he needs to work on remembering processes. We will work on this more in future sessions. "

"I worked on biology with this student. We went over the digestive system including the functions, organs, enzymes, etc. The digestive system is quite complex, but to aid in understanding, notecards would help. For his PowerPoint, making the notes section into a study guide to have after his presentation would help."

"The student was preparing for his upcoming math test, which included quadratic, exponential and geometric equations. He seems to understand most of the information pretty well and did remember the necessary equations for this section. He had a bit of trouble with the exponential growth and decay formulas at first because he didn't remember what each variable represented. And determining the proper way to write a geometric equation took a bit of extra research to understand fully, as we had an incorrect formula at first. But he said he feels comfortable with the info from this section and thinks he'll do well on the test. I did suggest that he continue to review the equations so that he isn't questioning himself on test day. "
