"The student easily recalled the meaning and application of absolute value, used reasoning to choose subtraction in a word problem, calculated perimeter, and understood how to work with a composite figure. He needed help seeing how to find the length of an unknown side from other known sides. He reviewed the features of an isosceles triangle. The student needed support answering a fraction addition problem with mixed numbers and a variable. With step by step questioning, he knows how to proceed to the end. He is now able to quickly change mixed numbers to fractions mentally, and knows when it is useful to do so. We reviewed order of operations and the mnemonic "PEMDAS" -- work within parentheses first and so on. Formal instruction and practice in setting up proportions continued with the student showing very good progress. He remembers how to divide both sides of an equation to isolate the variable. Percent was reviewed as part divided by total times 100. Strategies presented include drawing and labeling, using calculator together with mental checking, write everything before using calculator and write neatly. The student showed excellent understanding of reducing fractions, circle area, pyramid volume, simple interest, straight angles and algebraic thinking. Finally, the student learned the new concept "like terms" and how they are added and multiplied within the context of perimeter and area problems. He scored 97% on the Practice test. The student presents as happy, confident and motivated."

"During today's session we reviewed an exam the student had taken earlier today and then worked on her homework assignment. The student didn't understand the material on the homework assignment so I first explained the concept and then used the homework problems as practice. "

"In order to prepare for his upcoming test, the student and I continued working through lessons from chapter 16 in his book. During this session, we finished 16.2 on vector spaces and 16.3 on the fundamental theorem of line integrals. He understood most all of it, but the concept of conservative fields was giving him trouble. He will go over that at the next session."

"In this session, the student and I began to focus on the verbal section. I suggested that he continue to make flashcards for the words we went over that he did not know, and to make cards for the roots, prefixes, and suffixes. I recommended that as he completed future verbal practice sections, he should use process of elimination to help him find the closest definition compared to the definition he came up with on his own. I also assigned another full length SSAT practice test to be completed before our next meeting."

"In this session, we covered the main parts of the test and discussed test taking strategies. We spent all of our time discussing what she should expect and how to prepare for the test. I think the student is a smart girl, and I think she will do well in her test if she applies the lessons we discussed."

"The student and I continued the percentage unit, progressing to commission, discount, and percent of change. The problems are presented as word problems, and she is slowly gaining confidence in dealing with analyzing the problem and figuring out what is actually being asked for and how to get it. I'm hoping to get her to a point where she can work on some of the assignments independently in order to get through the unit a little more quickly. "

"The student completed her homework for the week, which had word problem practice. She's pretty good at determining what information is useful from the word problems. We also did some more multiplication practice and she's remembering more of the facts. "

"This session, we went over the digestive system and tracked the journey that food takes throughout the body. We also reviewed the three main sources of calories and how the stomach and small intestine deals with them to break down into small monomers that we can easily absorb. We then looked at the different nutrients and vitamins, along with the various jobs they do in our body. Next session, we will begin to review the different body systems in preparation for the student's exam."
