"Today we worked on making histograms. After I explained the method for creating frequency tables and histograms, the student easily grasped the process. We also went over how to find standard deviation. "

"Today we worked on the student's homework problems. These problems covered logarithms and many of the different rules associated with these problems. She had no problem grasping the interest related problems, but did have some minor problems understanding the importance of logarithms. Other then that it was a good session. "

"Today we worked on coordinate geometry, the midpoint formula, the distance formula, finding the equation of the perpendicular bisector, median, the center of a circle, and the equation of a circle. "

"Today, we worked on quadratic functions and factoring. The student had a positive attitude throughout the session. I included strategies to help with graphs. "

"Today, the student told me that she is more comfortable with proofs now since she has started tutoring. She is more confident in her geometry class, which is great to hear. We went over some review material she has to know, from last year in algebra. We solved systems of linear equations by two methods; substitution and elimination. She quickly picked up the process. She has told me that next week, on Tuesday she has a unit test, which will cover a lot of the material over this semester. We will meet on Monday in order to prepare her."

"The student and I spent the session going through an old test on Mendelian genetics. I showed her how to make a Punnett square with two genes and how to quantify the results with ratios. We also went over histograms, and I explained some quick tricks she could use to identify what type of inheritance was taking place. She was having a lot of difficulty understanding which parents were contributing what genes- I broke down the Punnett square using X and Y with superscripts to denote alleles to show which parents was contributing to a disease. Then, we spent the remainder of the session working through example problems and applying what she had learned."

"We covered polynomials and how to add and subtract them. The student was struggling with how to subtract polynomials. We'll work on that in our next session. He was positive and easy-going. I left him with 10 problems for homework."

"I had a very good session with the student tonight. We did the 2nd half of our first lesson, where we went over her practice test and talked about goals. During tonight's lesson, we talked about the ACT in general and went over the specific sections as far as timing and scoring breakdown goes. We talked a little about scantron techniques. We also talked about test day. She has never taken the ACT before, so I walked her through a brief overview of what to expect. She will be taking it at her high school. For next week, I have asked her to read Chps 4/5 in her prep book (English), to work the small passages in the chapters, and to take a practice test in English only. We will discuss the above section at our next meeting, which will be next Thursday."

"The student and I discussed conservation of momentum in the context of off-axis collisions. He understands this material very well, nearly as well as he understands conservation of energy. I have no doubts in his knowledge of this material."

"We worked through a number of integration problems involving areas and volumes of revolution. The problems in particular were a bit cumbersome due to the fact that intersection points required to find the limits of integration had to be discerned graphically, due to the fact that it is not possible to solve analytically for the intersection points of the functions being used."

"We continued discussing problems under the topic 'Graphing of Quadratic equations'. We worked on two problems and the student solved them with little help from me. The third problem that we started involved fractions. We decided to discuss this problem in the next session. We went on to discuss operations with complex numbers. The student was comfortable with problems on this topic. "
