"This session consisted of an exam review. The student and I reviewed multi-variable basics, vector calculus and optimization, linear algebra and systems of equations. She made a long list of possible question topics and she should be ready for the exam as she is quickly gaining mastery of the subject."

"The student and I started out by discussing her most recent test. She scored an 84 out of 100; she said that it was a short test and she had trouble with a few problems. However, since her teacher gave partial credit she was able to earn points for what she knew. She also said that she'll have one more test before her final. She and I then went through her homework which was solving equations with fractions. The fractions had different denominators so part of the challenge was finding the least common denominator; she had trouble with some of these until we went over ways to find the LCD. She had some difficulty with the slop question, but we went through that one slowly and I think she will be able to do other problems like it easily. She said that for the rest of the semester she'll be working on radicals, probabilities, ratios, work/rate problems, and direct/inverse variations. "

"Today the student and I reviewed for her final exams coming up tomorrow. She had a bunch of "green sheets" which were used to write down equations and concepts that she can use while taking her exams, so we filled those out and went over the concepts that she didn't seem to understand as well. For the most part, she seems very prepared and she feels very confident about her finals. "

"We did a whole bunch of graphing. The main focus of her needs was dealing with graphs. We had to find real zeros, the multiplicity, and establish the ends or limits of graphs. She had a fun time reviewing. "

"We reviewed the student's math homework first. She demonstrated mastery of the skill and did not need to make any corrections. She is still working on fact fluency in multiplication so we reviewed with flashcards. She has moved into more challenging reading material and selected a book from the school media center. We began reading together with frequent checks for comprehension. I left her with a goal to be completed before our next session. We also worked on the spelling skill for the week. She needed support in sorting her words by their sound/spelling pattern."

"We started by the student working through his math homework, which involved inequalities. He had little trouble with this. Then we did a quick review of Julius Caesar, focusing on comparisons between the characters. Then, we worked through an hour's worth of math problems in the practice test."

"Today we began with reviewing relevant business terminology and reviewing past vocabulary. We worked on selecting proper articles and prepositional usage. The student has greatly improved in these exercises and is excelling in selecting the proper articles (a/an, the, some, etc.). Then we worked on some interpersonal workplace scenarios and role played between disgruntled employees and human resources representatives. Afterwards we began to read and discuss an article on legal cases and took some interesting government and legal terms as vocabulary. Next time we will continuing reviewing prepositional usage, business terms, interpersonal scenarios, and complete reading and discussing the article. "

"We met to review the new material the student has learned since our last session. They have been going over thermodynamics, which is a bit of a review from chemistry. We went over all of the main concepts and equations, and then worked on practice problems. We chose problems that are similar to ones he may see on an exam. He seemed to have a good grasp of the content. He was engaged and attentive during the session. "

"The student started chapter 8 and worked on translations, reflections, and rotations about a point. We also reviewed her literature paper for clarity of thesis, conclusion, and overall flow of paper. "

"Today, the student and I covered finding the area between two curves. I explained how the area between two curves on an interval could be found by integrating the difference between the curves on the interval. Caution must be taken to make sure you are doing the difference correctly (that is, you should do the "upper" function minus the "lower" function). I explained how it is often helpful to sketch a graph of the functions to make sure this step is being done correctly. We then did several examples of finding the area between two curves. For most of the examples, we were not given an interval but rather just had to find the area bounded by two curves. To determine the endpoints of our integration, we needed to find where the curves intersect. He definitely seemed to understand things quite well, and he seemed to get more comfortable with the material the more examples we did. We will meet again on Thursday to go over more applications of integration."

"We reviewed the material we worked on last night (factoring equations) and then worked on new material (special cases of factoring when perfect squares are concerned). The student retained all of what we worked on yesterday. With the new material, I helped her through the first two sets of problems, then she used them as a reference to do the following set on her own. I believe she is really starting to retain and remember the concepts which seemed so foreign to her from class. With more time she will become more comfortable with the problems and will be able to apply the future concepts easier. I asked her to complete the rest of the homework she started today for Sunday, and I will look through it and we can talk about areas she doesn't understand. "
