"Today we worked on the unit circle and trigonometric functions. The student had questions regarding this material, and she was able to progress a great deal. I hope to meet with her soon again to reinforce the material because it was a lot of information."

"The student is an incredibly sharp young woman who is clearly motivated and capable. She works very quickly. She left with the intention of working on her homework set and we will review any problems she encounters at our next session. "

"We worked to prepare the student for his six-week test. The focus of the test was quadratic equations, including graphing, factoring, and simplifying. We also spent some time working on utilizing his new calculator. "

"Today we covered the distributive property and substitution. Student A had a great grasp of all the concepts but would make a small mistake here and there. Student S did well too. However, when the answer doesn't come to her immediately, she begins to doubt herself and gets down. She improved as the session went along and became more and more confident. Lastly, I gave them strategies on how to approach distributive questions that asked the student to place the parenthesizes. "

"We went through several problems determining whether a sequence diverged or converged and to what value if it did converge. We used several techniques, including simply taking the limit of the formula for the sequence terms, the sandwich theorem, and comparison tests. We looked at raising a rational function to the nth power, rational functions with arctangent and natural logarithm functions, and various power and exponential functions. We also considered alternating sequences and geometric sequences."

"The student did a practice AP long form question. I asked him to write an introduction and a plan in about fifteen minutes. We went over techniques for answering these type of questions. We then reviewed a Poe essay. He comprehended most of it, and we went over the finer points and tonal shifts. We also reviewed his AP US project, an annotated bibliography. . "

"The student and I worked on proofs. These included concepts and theorems involving polygons, parallelograms, parallel lines, vertical angles, congruent sides, congruent angles, etc. She had little difficulty in doing a homework assignment from Monday that had previously given her trouble. Her proficiency and confidence are improving. Her latest average is an A-. "

"During the session, we covered topics of the New World and the settlement of the colonies. The student is very bright and great at doing multiple choice questions. I advised the student to brush up on concepts and key terms. A method she can use is self quizzing. She had a wonderful attitude and was really motivated to learn the concepts. She really put effort into the learning process. "

"Today we continued 13.1 (measurements of spread and center) and worked on 13.2 (dot plots and outliers). The student is doing well with the information. There is a lot of information and vocabulary, so she is taking detailed notes on each section."

"We covered using synthetic division to solve equations, finding the possible rational zeros, and factoring. The student had never really learned to factor. His attitude was positive. I taught the student the basics of factoring and included a few equation-solving strategies to minimize simple errors. The student has more practice to work on, but we reviewed several problems similar to the ones he must do. The student's understanding of the relationship between factors, zeros, and the overall equation has improved dramatically. He was able to solve problems relating the three by the end of the session."

"The student and I worked in the Common Core Test prep workbook. The topic was using patterns within tables and coordinate graphs to solve problems. We talked about how negative numbers are represented on a coordinate grid."
