"The student had a quiz on solving quadratic equations yesterday. He said that he was a bit confused by this topic. He also requested help with the quadratic formula method. We worked on these two methods (practice problems). By the end of the session, he was doing a great job, and was able to catch his mistakes. My plan is to make a practice test for him before his test next week."

"We covered how to use mathematical reasoning to solve multi-layered word problems involving long division, double digit multiplication, addition, and subtraction. The student was mostly struggling with recognizing some of the key math terms that identify the fundamental operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division) needed to solve the problems and with the implementation of these fundamental operations. She had a very good attitude about working with the material that was reviewed. I gave her some strategies on how to identify the key terms and how to use base 10 counting methods to help with her operational skills. I also gave her some tips on maintaining good notes and using her scratch work as a guide for future reference. Overall I felt that this was a very good first session."

"We reviewed the concepts of work as performed by both conservative and nonconservative forces and then work on motion problems utilizing conservation of energy with both types of work."

"The student is moving right along but has yet to be challenged in class. We continued the material on combinations and permutations, which so far has proven to be a relatively easy topic for him. No significant biology hw was assigned, but I expect with midterms coming up that he will be challenged a lot. "

"Today, the student and reviewed a quiz that he had recently taken. His areas that needed improvement were estimating the value of square roots of numbers like 20 or 15 and understanding where numbers fit in the classification criteria. I drew him a chart with real, rational, integer, whole, and natural categories and wrote in examples of each type of number. We will work more on square roots next session. After that, we worked on homework that asked him to calculate and write numbers in scientific notation. It involved going between standard form and scientific notation. In addition, he had to add, subtract, multiply, and divide these numbers. There were a few word problems thrown in."

"We continued reviewing the exponential and logarithmic functions, along with the previous chapter contents. We are working on decay functions, combination of functions, long division and synthetic division, and national functions in this session. The student picked up all the concepts quickly after given several examples. "

"Today, the student and I worked on solving rational inequalities as well as a review of graphing rational functions. He's very strong in this section. I did go over some alternative ways of thinking about and solving these problems, just to give him more tools and build his conceptual base, but he was already strong without them. He's doing very well in this section. "

"We mostly covered convergences tests for infinite series. We worked through a practice test problem and some example problems in order to review the different methods. The student has had a pretty good attitude and he was requesting this session in order to prepare for the exam. "

"Today we continued to go over practice tests. We reviewed methods that we had learned before. The student is really picking up on how to go about solving the questions. However, I suggested slowing down and writing down steps in order to reduce the chance of missing points from a simple mistake. His arithmetic has significantly improved as well! I will be sending worksheets shortly so that he can continue practicing what we covered. "

"The student and I spent our session reviewing for his upcoming tests in math and physics. We began by going through a problem sheet for solving a circuit. The circuit was fairly simple, using only a voltage source and resistors. I walked him through the process of taking a circuit comprised only of resistors and reducing the configuration to a model circuit with only one resistor with equivalent resistance to the previous circuit. We focused on applying Ohm's law and using it to find the "total" current as well as voltage drops per resistor and how current split over parallel resistors. Once he had completed the worksheet, we moved on to a practice trigonometry test. We spent most of the time on this practice test practicing how to plot sine and cosine functions, and how functional translations were represented with sine and cosine."

"We worked on a review of her math homework. We then spent time on her spelling words. She seems to struggle with thinking that the letter "a" in words like "toward" is actually an "o," and vice versa. We then reviewed challenging words in her next reading, and she listened to someone else read the story. I found that this really helped her read the book itself. We certainly need to work on reading directions and comprehension questions. We will continue to work on this next session."
