"We reviewed the correlation coefficient, its method of calculation, using its table, and applying it to hypothesis testing."

"We discussed the student's finals schedule and about which finals he has academic concerns. From there we discussed a study style and organization ideas for how to wrap his brain around the topics using index cards and a cork-board/bulletin board idea. After that we looked over the topics he figured, at this early point, would make their way onto his math final exam. We did general overviews of each chapter with examples, and tried to center in on what he may need to focus on at a later session. Our next steps are to find out as much as possible about what will be on the final exam and of those topics, what the student may need the most work with."

"We covered the law of cosines and law of sines and reviewed factoring. I taught the student a new way to factor that he better understands. "

"This was my first session with this student. She started algebra as a 9th grader a week ago. She is hoping a tutor can help clarify some of her questions as she progresses through the class. In this session, we worked through her homework from Chapter 2.5 and 2.6. There were many multi-step word problems and absolute value problems that we worked through while clarifying the teacher's notes and formulas. We also looked back on the review packet where she was able to show me which problems she had trouble with - finding X when there are fractions and when X is part of a fraction. We talked about the different methods for solving these problems and which method might work best for her. We talked about the importance of finding a common denominator and of doing the same operations to both sides of the equation. "

"We reviewed the online assignments from the student's Spanish class. This consisted of using vocabulary and working on the conjugations of verbs and adverbs."

"The student didn't have any questions from his class, as they had just finished the most recent module. I took the opportunity to teach him what trigonometric functions look like and how to graph them. We covered all six trig graphs, differences in amplitude, frequency, period, and how to transform sine to cosine through phase shifts. He seemed to really enjoy discovering the weird forms convolutions of functions created, and figuring out why they occurred, which led to a brief discussion of calculus. He should be at least a module or two ahead of the class now in terms of exposure. More rigorous homework using the class's conventions should prove much easier for him. We will meet again in January and make a plan for the new year."

"Today, the student and I went over solving for exponential functions, transforming exponential functions, and solving for recursive and explicit functions. He did very well with transforming exponential functions. We went over a few problems of the other functions, and I encouraged him to look over his notes again before the quiz. I think he will do well if he takes the time to study a little extra. "

"We covered defining functions, continuity, and discontinuity. Some of the material was new, so he student had a little problem with piecewise functions. Once we went over it, he understood what he was doing. He is starting to grasp the material very well now, so he is really confident in his approach. We went over some quick ways to find asymptotes for those types of functions. Finding those makes it easy to determine the behavior of the that function. He is coming along very well with his understanding of the material and pre-calculus in itself. "

"We spent most of the session practicing the FOIL methods of multiplying polynomials (mostly binomials) and special multiplication cases with these binomials in preparation for her quiz the following day."

"The student and I went over her homework. Her homework was practice in using pi to compute the circumference of a circle knowing the diameter and vice versa. I talked to her briefly about how pi was discovered by the ancient mathematicians."

"We continued working on trigonometry concepts from the student's current chapter. She completed the homework that the teacher assigned and worked on memorizing the unit circle. She mentioned that the problems on the test are much harder than what is assigned, so I asked her to work out several word problems at the end. I told her to contact me if she would like to meet before the next exam."
