"We reviewed the trig functions, units circles and angle-side triangles for his quiz on Wednesday. He had a hard time understanding how angles, sides and sin/cosine functions related to each other, so I explained the concept to him using SOHCAHTOA and then did several practice problems. We then reviewed the difference between radians and degrees and how to convert between the two. We used the review to complete several trig and word problems from the practice test. We need to review the basic concepts together again, but overall it was a good session. With constant practice he should see improvement in his scores."

"We went through her exam review. We solved several questions that she was struggling with them. I explained them to her and asked her to solve the similar problems. She understood them. We solved almost 20 questions. She is doing good. "

"Today the student and I worked on passive and active membrane models, Hodgkin and Huxley, and first exam practice. We went over the practice exam for the first test. We talked about passive and active modeling of membranes, circuit equations, and Hodgkin-Huxley models."

"Although I usually tutor the student for programming, today we reviewed for his math exam. We talked about functions, how to compose them and evaluate them, and how to find inverses. We solved quadratic equations by completing the square and also did some graphing of piecewise functions."

"Today, the student and I covered angles, mixed number operations and ratios. She did a great job as always. She did struggle with finding all the angles of a triangle, but this is a relatively new lesson, and I'm sure that with the homework I assigned her, she will master this concept. "

"We did some work on methods of integration such as integration by parts and trigonometric substitution. The student didn't struggle much with the practice problems that I gave her, and she did well comprehending how to approach the problems. Overall, it was a very good first session and she understood the material well."

"Today was my first session with this student. She is currently working on multiplying decimals. She is also estimating her answers for some of the problems. She is a bright child and was staying on task throughout the lesson. There were a few times that she forgot to carry her values, but she quickly caught her mistakes. She is receptive and works hard. Afterwards, I had a nice conversation with her mom. She told me more about Singapore math and we discussed the student's progress. We had an excellent first session together. I look forward to our next meeting on Tuesday. "

"The student and I spent our session going over the conceptual side of the new topics she has been learning this semester. We worked on polar coordinates, complex numbers, and vectors primarily. I reviewed each of these topics with her and spent some time emphasizing the various overlaps between them, such as using polar coordinates to help find complex roots. I especially focused on vectors, vector addition, and how big a role trigonometry plays in working with vectors. We ended the session working on a small number of problems for each topic."

"The student and I continued to review her work-related materials (slideshow presentation and written communications.) She continues to make great strides, and the areas in which she needed help this week are relatively minor (definite/ indefinite articles, and using partial ellipses instead of a period). Next week we plan to review additional work materials."

"In this session the student and I worked on his vocabulary for his test. He also worked on his religion homework and we prepared for that test. After he was ready for his two tests, we worked on reading comprehension using Mark Twain and a piece on art. His reading has improved and his comprehension is much better. He is able to pull a variety of ideas and themes out. He needs to work a bit on connecting points (cause and effect) but he is doing well overall. "

"We solved problems relevant to the upcoming midterm and final. For the next few days, the student should try to practice some relevant algebra problems, including logarithmic equations, power equations, and algebra of fractions. This will give her the foundation to ace the exams. "
