"Today we went over converting between decimals, fractions and percentages. The student struggled with some of the questions in the beginning but as we practiced more she started to get the hang of it and recognize patterns. The student is still struggling with her times tables. If she memorizes her times tables these types of problems will become easier for her to do and I mentioned that to her."

"We continued reviewing the student's online homework. We completed the unit on trig functions, identities, and applications of trig functions. "

"We worked on factoring polynomials, difference and sum of squares, difference and sum of cubes, and finding the zeros by factoring. The student just needs the materials explained one on one as the teacher likes to speed over subject matter. I went over some example problems with her and explained them in more detail. The teacher likes to do timed tests which add pressure. If the student gets comfortable with the material, the pressure of time will lessen."

"For the first half hour or so we reviewed the student's assigned homework--8 problems reviewing subtraction of whole numbers (with zeros), decimals and mixed numbers, multiplication and division of decimals and mixed numbers. He had trouble remembering a number of these problems, so we went over each one carefully. Then he took a 9-problem test on whole numbers, fractions and decimals. He got all correct except the division of fractions problem. We went over that again, then started percent concepts and percent problems. For homework he will study the first lesson in his test preparation book. It includes definitions and examples for order of operation problems. We will continue with percent problems next session, and begin integer concepts and operations if time permits. As usual, his attitude was great. His desire to learn is obvious and awesome!"

"We covered proportions from the student's class notes and his homework as well. He only showed slight difficulties in the wordings of some problems, however, after breaking down the question into smaller parts he was able to understand. He was very enthusiastic about clarifying the material and when introduced to higher level mathematics was very excited. He should continue to practice problems, however it should also be noted that occasionally he may rush through a problem. I encourage him to read questions more carefully and break them down."

"We have done review for a coming exam. We solve trigonometric equation by factoring, using square root property, solved the trig. equation in quadratic form. We review identities and sum/ difference angle formulas. We applied the formula to evaluate the value of trigonometric functions. We reviewed the inverse trig function theorem and applied it to evaluate expressions."

"This was an excellent session. The student completed all of the homework and challenge problems. A couple things to keep in mind: combine like terms before anything else. When making ratios, make the numerators one concept, and the denominators the other. If you have lengths of shadows and heights of people, make the lengths denominators and the heights numerators, or vice versa. Finally, don't be afraid of big variables with parentheses. For example, treat (3x+2)/3 as "y" until the problem makes more sense. "

"Today, we worked on graphing and solving equations. The student's attitude was positive throughout the session. I included strategies to simplify the material and convey certain concepts. I look forward to our next session."

"The student and I first went over her math homework, which was a review of subjects she has learned this year in order to prepare for her upcoming standardized test. We also reviewed reading homework, which involved writing two paragraphs after reading two articles. We utilized one of the online math websites used in her class to practice multiplication and division questions. It is great how much she has improved!"

"Today, we were able to complete the student's unit 5 review in preparation for his upcoming test. The review covered optimization, related rates, and linearization. The student is very proficient in the last topic, and shows great improvement in related rates. He needs to review the first topic the most in preparation for the test. "

"This week we covered comparing and contrasting. We read two passages and wrote down 5 unique things to each passage, and then we wrote what they both had in common. The student told me what he had learned from each passage and his writing is starting to improve. I gave him two new books to read. He's starting to remember the strategies we talked about, and I think he is going to continue to improve. "
