"Reviewed multiplication. Learned what decimals are and worked on adding, subtracting, and multiplying decimals. Started working on exponents. "

"We covered quadratic equations and the Pythagorean Theorem. The student struggled with identifying the a, b, and c terms from the quadratic equation, but she eventually got it. I showed her to pay attention to the coefficients in front of the terms so she wouldn't get mixed up. I left her homework from her workbook."

"Today was about getting acquainted with the student and evaluating her knowledge base. We discussed limits, derivatives, and touched on linearization at the end. She is bright but has a very weak foundation, which explains her struggles with calculus. I think that as she begins to understand the material more, her attitude towards math will become more positive."

"We started our session by reviewing some stylistic and rhetorical devices. We then went through two of the practice essay prompts, identifying stylistic devices and analyzing how they were used by the author to further their argument. The student noticed elements such as repetition, parallelism, the connotation and denotation of particular words, as well as imagery and analogy. We then discussed how she might organize these observations into a coherent analytical narrative. We did this by discussing how she could outline her essays so that each observation builds on the last, culminating in an overarching argument about how they all connect. Next time, we will look at additional prompts and she will practice identifying rhetorical strategies and outlining on her own. In the following session, she will write another practice essay, using the skills she has been practicing. "

"The student and I went over his test review packet. The packet consisted of many derivative problems that involved product rule, quotient rule, and chain rule. Some of them asked us to find the equation of the tangent line at a specific point in slope intercept form. Other problems involved related rates and implicit differentiation. With the related rates problems, I explained that we need to appropriately identify what information is given to us and find out what the question is asking in order to find the answer. "

"We covered volume of discs and washers sections of calculus. I reviewed how to find the outer radius and inner radius of each problem. The student then would know how to apply them to the volume formula. I also went over how to determine the limits to each of the integrals in the problems."

"This was an introduction session. The student and I spent time getting to know one another. We worked on a number of exercises to see how he learns and what he already knows. He has the foundations of English grammar already, but we need to work on building confidence and applying this to his own reading and writing."

"The student had just had a quiz on conics and wanted to get a head start on vectors, the next topic to be covered in her class. I explained what a vector was (a directed line segment with a magnitude and direction), how to express a vector in the component form and in the "i" and "j" form, how to add and subtract vectors, how to find the angle of direction, and graphically how to show the resultant vector. She also found the magnitude and direction on her own with several examples. Scalar multiplication of vectors and the unit vector were also discussed. She has a good handle on this and should be well prepared for her class next week."

"The student and I reviewed derivatives of trigonometric and inverse trigonometric functions involving the chain rule. We worked on finding tangent and normal lines to trigonometric, inverse trigonometric and transcendental functions at a given point. We also worked on evaluating the function values of complicated trigonometric expressions."

"We covered various kinds of volume problems, primarily ones where the base of a solid is an area between two graphs and the solid has cross-sections with particular shapes. We discussed the ways to build intuition about these problems as well as the necessary geometric techniques to set up the correct integrals. We also reviewed exponential growth and decay problems."

"This week, Student 1 and I worked on unit conversions, while Student 2 and I worked on multiplying fractions. Both students are ahead of their respective classes, and their progress remains on the right track. "
