Session Summaries by Tutors

"During our session, the student and I completed several exam review sheets to help her prepare for a test that she has in class on Friday. Her exam will cover solving / simplifying equations involving radical expressions. She did very well during our session. We will meet again next week."

"During this session the student continued her work with her summer packet. We reviewed solving inequalities with one variable and graphing the solution set. She will benefit from additional practice solving these problem types to gain better fluency. She is able to follow step by step algorithms. We spent the remainder of the session with a quick lesson on graphing linear equations. We went over concept of x and y intercepts, as well as reviewed slope-intercept form, so that she should be able to complete the remainder of her packet."

"The student's class had been taking derivatives and learning the multiplication, quotient, chain, and power rules. She understood the multiplication and quotient rules but was less confident with the chain and power rules. We went over those in terms of u-substitution and how rewriting a complicated function in terms of u can be useful in solving for the derivative. I did one example from the book for each and then had her do another. She seemed more confident after. She was also unsure of the conceptual problems on her homework. We reviewed how to check if a function was continuous and differentiable at a point. "

"The student and I worked on 2 class problems on Newton's second law/kinematics. At first he was not sure how to start these problems. After going through these 2 problems, he was able to solve several examples independently. We also reviewed how to resolve forces and find x and y components. I introduced the combination of two forces at right angles. We will review this in our next session."

"We practiced using the various trigonometric identities to simplify trig expressions. We practiced converting everything into sines and cosines and then using our properties of fractions and the Pythagorean identities to finish simplifying. We clarified what having an angle of pi/2-x does as an input for each of the trig functions and used the graphs of sine and cosine to illustrate the shift. We also looked at what having a negative angle does for each of the trig functions. We made sure to identify when to use the different techniques, such as using the Pythagorean identities when we have squares or multiplying by the conjugate when we have a binomial in the denominator of a fraction. The student is doing well simplifying using factoring and fractions, and he is getting better using the Pythagorean identities."

"The student and I continued to prepare for her algebra midterm. She had checked her answers against the answers her teacher had sent out. She was able to do most of them correctly. We started reviewing together where she left off. We went through word problems and questions about equations of lines. Once we finished the packet, I had her do practice problems from the problem bank. She let me know that on the test she wouldn't be able to use her calculator, but the calculations would be easier. I had her do some systems of equations questions. I also had her do function rules and writing the rule for an arithmetic sequence. She had some trouble with the sequences, so we did more of these questions. I also went over the underlying concepts. She seemed to be able to do these better after we finished working. She said that she felt prepared for her midterm. "

"We covered derivatives (i.e.., power, product, and quotient rules as well as derivatives of trigonometric functions). The student did not understand derivatives when we first started, but she seemed to get it afterwards. She was attentive. I gave her an outside resource she can use for calculus. "

"We read about California. This worked out well because the student will be going there next week for spring break. We discussed background knowledge to build - connect it to new information learned. This also included reviewing text features included in the text. We also worked on math: shape recognition with vertices, edges, and faces. This also led into review of fractions - finding the LCD. "

"The student reviewed all of the vowel sounds that he learned. Once we practiced each letter from the review sheets, we worked on some of the worksheets that he had for practice. The student practiced reading and filling in missing letters. I gave him some study strategies to keep practicing his phonics and reading skills. "

"Today, I tested the student on fractions to ensure he has a complete understanding of the material, and without a doubt he did very well. On that note, I went ahead to teach him how to find the area and circumference of a circle. We weren't able to go too far into the topic, but he seems to have a good basic understanding of the material. Generally, it was a good session. "

"We discussed his review material for his upcoming quiz. We talked about calculating pH, neutralization reactions, strong vs weak acids, concentrated vs. dilute acids, the difference in titration curves of weak and strong acids with strong base, and Bronsted Lowry definitions of acid, base, conjugate acid, conjugate base.
