"We went over HW problems for Chapter 7. The topic is about graphing a function. The student did most of his problems correctly."

"Today the student and I looked ahead to what he will be learning in class the next couple days. This included square roots, perfect squares, solving equations with square roots, and find the length on a side or radius when given the area of a square or circle. He worked on some problems together with my help and by the end of the session he was able to get 14 problems correct when he tried them entirely by himself. We also discussed what it meant to truly learn something and I encouraged him to teach others in his class when doing group work to fully understand the math. "

"We concluded our review of physics SAT topics by covering a bit of leftover optics and thermal physics, and then spending most of the time on modern physics (photons, photoelectric effect, Bohr's atom, radioactivity and half-life, special relativity). We will continue with this tomorrow night, putting it to use on some practice questions."

"This week we worked on math review exercises for both students. They continue to amaze me regarding how smart they are! It's always a pleasure working with them. "

"Tonight, we completed the student's homework on exponents and reviewed for her quiz tomorrow on polynomials. We covered topics, including multiplying, adding, subtracting and dividing polynomials, degrees of polynomials, monomials, binomials, trinomials, negative exponents, and simplifying expressions with exponents. The student seems to have a good grasp of the material but tends to rush through problems. I emphasized the importance of slowing down and showing all work to avoid making simple mistakes. I also looked at his test from a few weeks ago, and we discussed reviewing this in the near future when she has a lighter workload."

"Today, we were able to finish the last of the trigonometric material. It included graphing trigonometric functions (sine, cosine, and tangent) with different amplitudes, periods, and phase shifts. We also covered relations between angles and the sides of right triangles and how to solve for missing information. In addition, we went over the area of a sector, and we revisited the concept of solving trigonometric expressions that are being added or subtracted. We were able to get through the problems, and he was able to understand and do problems on his own."

"In preparation for the student's quiz Tuesday, we went over the two corresponding worksheets. We cemented some specific mechanics of multiplying exponents, and when we had finished all of those two worksheet problems, we tested her understanding by creating the hardest conceptual-relevant questions we could. With a little more practice, she is sure to do well on her quiz!"

"The student and I reviewed for her test on Thursday, going over a worksheet she received from her teacher as well as several problems in the book. She had a little bit of trouble with overlapping similar triangles, but after a bit of practice, grasped the concept and has mastered it."

"The student and I read a passage about President's Day and engaged in pre, during, and after reading activities. She and I read two short poems that were published by young authors in elementary school. We worked on word problems. She drew images of each word problem to help solve the problems. "

"We first did a short review of a special pattern in factoring: difference of squares. We covered the student's current topic of study: radicals. We covered the rules to follow for products and quotients under the radical sign and for simplifying radical expressions by seeking and removing perfect squares. We solved numerous practice problems. She will gain confidence by doing many more practice problems on her own."

"During this session, the student and I reviewed the remainder of his homework. He has received much positive feedback from his teachers, commenting on his increasing ability to focus during class and a reduced amount of verbal interruptions during class, phenomena which are replicated in the session with me as well."
