"We covered equations containing radical expressions and practiced solving for extraneous solutions. We also did multiplication using exponential terms with similar bases and/or powers. We will continue to work on exponent rules. I showed him ways to manipulate exponents to simplify or expand terms. He had a very positive attitude. "

"We continued working through the student's online syllabus; this session was spent covering percents and proportions, as well as an introduction to slope-intercept and graphing."

"During this session, we went over related rates questions. The student had several questions from her class, and I was able to clarify the concepts for her. Overall, this session went well."

"We continued reviewing problems on the online test prep portal. We reviewed factoring, inequalities, graphing of absolute value functions as well as their solution, polynomial expansion, and logarithmic functions, among other topics. She has a great understanding of the fundamental concepts, and I believe she's had a strong finish to the semester."

"We worked on 2-column proofs, vocab, postulates, and working out problems with two parallel lines cut by a transversal."

"We worked on problems that used the product rule. The main focus was on a problem that asked about standard deviation. We did a review of mean and standard deviation and I gave her two practice problems on it. She is showing more proficiency with derivatives, but still needs to list out all of the component parts to get a question. "

"We reviewed multi-step algebraic equations homework as well as some practice questions. We worked on an outline for a writing assignment and went over study skills for the student's upcoming science test."

"The student and I went over a review for his upcoming quiz. Many of the proofs revolved around transversals and parallel lines. I showed him that often times the boundary of a polygon can be a transversal, but it is not immediately apparent since the boundaries are line segments. We are used to seeing transversals reach across parallel lines, not parallel line segments. This is easily remedied by extending the line segments of a polygon. We also reviewed the method of proof by contradiction. The student seems very comfortable with this idea after having looked at it more the past week."

"The student and I had another productive day. We began with spelling, reviewing phonograms and spelling rules. Then we did part 2 of list I-4, with her coming up with sentences. Afterwards, we finished lessons 4 and 5 in grammar, including activity 17-4. We reviewed a little for the chapter 17 test, and she took it. She missed 3 points, mostly on labeling capitalization rules. Then we worked on lesson 74 in math, which was a review worksheet. We worked through it steadily, and I was impressed with her at the end when she transferred the intuition from adding four-digit numbers on the abacus to regular addition. This was a very good session for us. "

"We did an introduction to assigning oxidation numbers for atoms in a reaction and then determining what is oxidized and what is reduced. We also covered calculations for thermochemistry: delta H, delta S, delta G, and equilibrium constants. The student was very positive and easy to work with. We used some online websites, some memorization tools, and practice problems. "

"The student and I used this session to prepare for his upcoming midterm. We discussed his understanding of subjects covered in his last session and he indicated he felt more comfortable with those subjects so we moved on discussing Riemann sums, antiderivatives, and integrals. The student seemed to have a basic understanding of these topics. We went through a review packet and took the time to break down the relationships between functions, their derivatives, and their integrals. We walked through how to do each mathematically, as well as what they meant in terms of graphing. The student was able to do and follow most the questions asked of him after breaking things down a bit more, but could use more work on his general pace in doing the problems. I encouraged more problems, specifically concerning areas he struggled with, in order to pick up his general speed on his upcoming exam. "
