"We continued to review the first student's state test mathematics booklet. A variety of basic subjects - percentages, volumes and areas, inequalities, etc. - seem out of the student's reach. I will try to describe unfamiliar material as best I can in as much detail as possible to compensate for this deficit. The second student continues to perform quite well in our sessions. He completed his math packet today with very little difficulty, getting nearly all of the questions correct!"

"Today we studied the various angle that exist involving the circle and how there measure relates to the arcs of the circle. We looked at different strategies for finding measures of arcs and angles. The session went very well. The student is doing very well in her class."

"It was good to meet the student and his family. We discussed his goals and expectations for college. We spent the majority of today's session discussing his academic strengths and interests, his study habits, his college expectations, and his hopes. Although he is slightly "behind" in the college application process, it seems he has potential to do very well should he put his mind to it. At the end of our session, I recommended three goals for him this week: 1) to begin assembling a list of potential schools and gathering information about them; 2) to set up an online organizational account and begin organizing due dates and tasks; and 3) to complete the objective section of the Common App. essay and write a rough draft of the required essay."

"We went over questions dealing with factoring that the student had for homework. We started with factoring trinomials, which she had learned and she was able to answer the questions. Then we tried questions dealing with factoring the greatest common factor. She said she was confused when there were multiple variables, but found that the questions were a lot simpler than she expected. The same goes for the questions dealing with solving for a variable given an equation. We went over how to set each quantity equal to zero to solve for the variable. Finally, we went over factoring binomial squares and what to look out for to determine if we can factor them. She was able to answer the questions on her own and retained the information as we solved different questions!"

"We reviewed concepts from the last session related to transversal lines. After that, the student asked about how to solve for a specific angle or the variable given. We talked about angles that are equal to each other: alternate interior/exterior, corresponding angles and angles that are supplementary: consecutive angles. We did some practice problems in the book as well. He needs review on differentiating between the two paths to solve the question. I provided notes for him to review. "

"The student and I covered the first couple of chapter topics for his upcoming exam in our session today. We started out reviewing the Universal Law of Gravitation and other formulas and laws involving gravity such as Kepler's Laws. We then covered static equilibrium with respect to torque. I asked him to find the normal force on a fulcrum supporting a number of masses and to find the system at static equilibrium."

"In this session, the student and I worked on a review sheet for quadrilaterals and polygons. I clarified the use of given formulas and helped her organize given sides/ angles to find missing sides. We also slightly touched on a review sheet for special triangles."

"The student and I went over the specific plot events (by day timeline) of William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. He was able to recite the events very strongly after a of couple reviews. Also, this test will feature famous passages from the play and who was speaking on what theme. We reviewed the study page using oral questions; he was proficient on the quotations."

"I met with the student to prepare for his chapter 8 exam. We went over his review packet as well as a concepts and definitions packet. We ended the lesson with doing a few practice problems from the learning tools. I am confident that he will do well on the exam as long as he takes his time to read the questions fully and double-checks his calculator work."

"Yesterday, the student and I worked on more algebra. We solved problems that had unknown variables, and we also solved multi- step word problems. We then finished by looking at examples in her book on fixing incorrectly solved algebra problems. I also checked some of her homework problems that involved decimals, just to be sure she solved them correctly. "

"The student and I reviewed her homework concerning transforming exponential functions. These problems involved taking the exponential function y=ab^x and determining what happens to the function (translation, vertical stretch/compression) when a number is added/subtracted to the equation and also when a is <1 or >1. By the end of the tutoring session, she understood all of the questions we covered."

"We finished up a bunch more problems. As I predicted, the appendix stuff was actually pretty easy for the student! They took forever, but he had no problem getting what to do. Then we did all the weird ones we'd skipped from before, but it was mostly just plugging in a large number of things to a calculator. He is now all caught up, both in terms of homework and understanding, so we'll go to a more normal tutoring schedule."
