"The student received approval that I may be proctor for his exams in all of his classes. We got everything set up so I will be able to administer a test to him that has been keeping him from progressing in English. We worked on his World Cultures class and reviewed chapter 2, including a very detailed/lengthy check test. "

"We focused on his final exam review packet, spending a lot of time on adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing rational expressions. The student's final exam covers a lot of information and his review packet is quite thick. We will continue working on this until it is complete and he feels confident and ready to nail his final exam. "

"We covered subjects on differentiation, finding tangent lines of a function/curve at given points. We also did many integration exercises with inverse trigonometric functions and exponential functions, specifically hyperbolic trigonometry functions."

"We discussed thermo-chemistry concepts and gas laws. We covered the ideas of specific heat and investigated why certain substances have high or low specific heats. We also used specific heat to see how the temperature of substances will equilibrate. We used the ideal gas law to determine the amount of particles in a certain gas."

"First, I showed the student an elegant proof of the Pythagorean Theorem. Then, we worked on chapter P (prerequisites) from his Pre-Calculus book. This included topics from algebra such as set theory, algebraic expressions, exponents, radicals, equations, and inequalities. I informed him that his job is to learn and relearn many things and that pre-calculus is like practicing scales when learning to play the piano. He was fun and easy to work with."

"For this session, the student practiced the reading comprehension skill of main idea. He needed help with identifying the main idea of each paragraph presented, often choosing one of the details rather than the statement that stated the overall picture of the paragraph. We will continue to work on that. He also practiced telling time to the half hour and quarter hour and reviewed his money skills with a game. He did a great job with both of these skills. Great job! "

"We reviewed some word problems for the AP exam. The student seems to be getting the hang of the problems. He could still use some work piecing everything together, like how integrals give you the area under the curve and the integral of velocity is position. He is making fewer simple mistakes, which is a good sign of improvement. We will keep reviewing for the AP exam next week."

"This week we covered the digestive system in detail. We reviewed the path food takes throughout the body, the role of each organ, the enzymes each organ contributes, and the molecules those enzymes help digest. The student was quick to pick up the concepts. We then went over, briefly, a few other important systems in the body: the respiratory system, circulatory system, and excretory system. While we could have gone into more detail, this brief overview helped put the digestive system in context. Finally we spend a brief time on an overview of glycolysis. We will, in the future, need to review the other systems (besides digestive) in additional detail, as well as electrolysis. However, as usual, the student was quick to understand the concepts, and we had a very productive session. "

"The student and I spent most of our session working on binomial expansion. We reviewed the general theory of it and how to write out the summation. I spent some time explaining what the 'n choose k' notation meant and how to expand it and simplify/solve it once we introduce numbers. We had to briefly go over what factorials were and how to use their expanded structure to make cancellations and calculate nCr by hand. Then we worked on a couple problems and carried them through to completion. Binomial expansion is, by nature, a very tedious process, so working out these problems took quite a bit of time. Once we had done a few examples we took a moment to look at SAT/ACT related material. I showed the student an additional technique that can be used to solve systems of equations. On the occasions where it can be used it saves a great deal of time, so it seemed very worthwhile to know for a standardized test. "

"The student and I completed her math homework which consisted mostly of rounding and adding ones, tens, and hundreds. For example, 8 hundreds + 29 tens + 17 ones. We also studied for her DOSS quiz that will be Friday which included terms natural resources, human resources, and capital resources. We also read an article about how our bodies change in outer space and answered the questions. "

"Did an exercise on how to identify 'a' sound in different types of words using a chart which asked the student to trace words that had similar vowels. Continued with exercises on matching words with pictures and writing said words using correct spelling. Finally, did some word problems involving addition from Math workbook. "
