"Today we went through the Language section of the prep book. The student only got one wrong in the entire section and test. Then we reviewed his answers from the math sections he had completed over the past week. Again, only one error. We then discussed several problems and extended a few. Then we went over some test-taking strategies, test preparation, and anxiety-reduction. I think he will do well!"

"The student and I began a personal grammar book that he can use as a reference during homework and studies. We reviewed the active indicative for all four conjugations in all six tenses. I also did a presentation on conjugating the irregular verb "possum" in all six indicative tenses. I assigned him three synopses (with English translation) as a brief homework assignment. We had a good session, and he is a quick leaner."
