"The student has his math exam tomorrow, so we just did some review problems today. I obtained a state-released exam from a previous year, and together, we went through as many problems in the allotted one hour. I wanted to give him a feel for the exam and the type of questions, along with the difficulty!"

"Today we reviewed hypothesis testing for two populations. The student has an open book exam scheduled for tomorrow."

"We discussed scale factor, how to find area, perimeter, and how to determine the size of a similar figure depending on the scale factor and the original figure given. "

"We went over the basics of circular motion and universal gravitation to prepare for tomorrow's test. I made up some problems with tension and circular motion, then I set up the difficult problem of a vertical circle not at the top or the bottom. The student caught on quickly."

"Yesterday Student A and I corrected and he finished his homework assignment for history, and we also covered more basics of C++. I also tried to get him to practice drawing with me, because he wants to make art. I explained that the best art, even on a computer, begins with the hand stroke of a real artist, and that he must practice if he wants to make progress. Student B and I briefly reviewed some math problems. His algebra is rusty, so we will work more on his practice in the future. We also discussed how to learn to write essays, and I explained that he simply must read books to improve his English skills -- there is no other way. He seemed to comprehend the message. Have a great day!"

"During this session we went over castle learning questions that dealt with 1D and 2D motion. Overall this session went well. There are a few things the student needs to work on which will fix themselves when he finishes all his review material."

"We worked on the student's homework and covered chemistry related to kinetic and potential energy, answering questions on both. After that, we used the specific heat equation to solve for q for various elements and water. We then rearranged the equations to solve for mass and temperature as well. I did each first problem with him, and he did the rest mostly on his own. He has trouble with questions that don't give him the units he needs right away, so we still need to practice converting."

"This session continued the topic of work and energy. The student had an assignment from class that he had trouble with, which we went through. He needs to work on recalling past formulas and reading through the problem to figure out which equation is necessary."

"Tonight, the student and I covered math (specifically fractions and division), and we also covered writing. He had a writing assignment tailored to focused opinion writing. The assignment is due tomorrow; we discussed it until he completed the assignment successfully. He had a great attitude and was open to listen and improve his writing skills. I taught him how to capture the reader's attention immediately when starting a paper (several techniques to use, e.g., asking an engaging question). Then, I had him read his entire paper after we finished writing it to polish audible reading skills. He did a fabulous job this evening. I will see grades once posted tomorrow. "

"For our session yesterday, the student and I began with some work on circles. He performs very well on subjects that involve shapes. He clearly has a strong understanding of shapes and, once again, circles were no different. We worked with graphing circles as well as providing equations for circles. After he completed the math work, we did some last minute practice for his "This I believe" speech. He has shown a tremendous jump in confidence, and I'm very proud to see him stand up to his fears of public speaking!"

"First, we went through theories of water properties, including polarity, geometry, electrons, H-bond, osmosis, capillarity, and solutions. Then we did practice questions to test his understanding of all the theories. Finally, we covered notions of acid and base, pH, acid/base definition, and neutralization. "
