"The student said he needed help with finding percentages in general math and finding areas and volumes in geometry. We first created a chart that shows the relationship between fractions, decimals, and percents using quarters and halves of $1.00 (e.g., 1/4 = 1 divided by 4 = .25 (a quarter) = 25% of $1.00), which I find useful in understanding percents, since it relates $1.00 to 100%, something with which students always have prior knowledge due to handling money. We then viewed a PowerPoint on understanding percents that expanded on those ideas by showing how "per-cent" means "out-of-100," and illustrating how the decimal point moves two places to the left when converting a fraction over 100 to a decimal, because you are dividing by 100 (which works the opposite way when multiplying by 100). Also, we looked at word problems where "What % of a is b?" can be represented as ax=b and "A is what percent of b?" can be represented as a=xb. As a generally useful technique, I showed the student how "is over of equals percent over 100," which works with turning any percent word problem into an equivalent pair of ratios which can be cross-multiplied, and then solved by isolating the variable. Finally, we looked at a few formulas for calculating area and volume of various polygons with some sketches of how they work. I also showed the student an excellent online resource for getting a few of the formulas (with explanations) that his math teachers are likely to expect him to know."

"I had the student write a practice essay from a sample SAT prompt. We went over it in detail, covering specifics of grammar, mechanics, sentence structure, and punctuation. Details are recorded in the document student saved from the session.
I assigned articles, journal / and another essay assignment.
Many questions about writing, including which / in which, for example, were resolved. The student's writing level has potential to increase, despite the limited time until the test."
