"Our session focused on going carefully through old concepts. I posed more difficult problems than the class had covered within each topic to ensure that the concepts were solidified. The student enthusiastically accepted the challenge and demonstrated the ability to synthesize information and apply it to unfamiliar problems. She did great!"

"We began by going over the prompt that I had assigned to the student prior to the session. After completing an outline together, we then went on to talking about creative writing. We then worked on several creative writing exercises focusing on different facets of the process such as description, dialogue, and exposition."

"We went through translation of different functions. I explained to her how she has apply different rules to find the translation and graph them. I showed her how she can use t table to graph each function by using the parent function. We solved several questions on them. She understood them and she needs to review and practice them. She is doing well. "

"The student and I spent the session working on trigonometric identity problems. Her class recently covered the sum and difference identities, so we worked on problems related to those from an assignment she had. This type of problem involves proofs, which are often something unfamiliar to students at this point, so they are particularly challenging. I believe we made good progress and that she has a good grasp of the process now. I gave her pointers on many of her other questions before we finished and just stressed that practice is what will make all of this easy for her. As a lead up to the new identities, we also reviewed the old identities and spent some time discussing how to derive new identities from them. Hopefully this lessens the memorization burden while also adding a little extra practice. "

"Today, we went over the two rules involving midlines of trapezoids and triangles. The student understands the concepts, and I encouraged her to slow down a bit when working on them."

"Today the student and I worked towards preparing him for the test he has on The Death of a Salesman tomorrow. We started by discussing some of the major themes and motifs of the story which helped him to understand the overall message of the play. Next we discussed each character in depth while also pointing to their pivotal characteristics which drive the story forward. Finally, we created a timeline of all the events discussed in the story in order to help better conceptualize all of the flashbacks and memories shared throughout the play by Willy. At the end of our session I gave the student some tips moving forward in order to best prepare for the test. We will meet again next week. "

"The student and I used this session to continue studying for his upcoming biology semester exam. He wanted to have a general review of all the concepts covered in the course, as well as ask some specific questions about problems on his study guide."

"In this session we reviewed the solution of integrals by substitution method, definite and indefinite, and a few applications, we are also solving problems regarding separable differential equations given initial conditions. I checked his understanding and he told me he understood everything, and he seemed to be more confident with the material given in class. Overall the wins from this session is that he had a better understanding of how to solve problems involving integration and separable differential equations. "

"The student had 4 pages of integer problems to solve. We did some of them on number lines, discussed the rules for solving, and did some of them with the calculator. After that, she had a 3-paged science article to read on how water loss affects biodiversity. We read the article aloud and then answered multiple-choice and open-ended questions about it. "

"The student and I focused on finding the max value of the absolute value of r in the given polar equations on her hw assignment for tonight. We worked out many of them until she really had the process down to a science. We worked together to solve the more difficult ones and used graphing and visuals to really gain a deep understanding of these types of problems. She did not have any trouble with the rest of the homework, and she felt she did not need further explanation on it, as all of her answers checked correctly to the back of her text. "

"The student and I have moved into 5th grade work, specifically fractions and decimals and word problems. So far, we have only gotten through division review and adding and subtracting decimal review, but we will soon be moving to new content. "
