"We discussed factoring polynomials and using long division and other tactics to divide polynomials. The student has good problem solving abilities. With reps I believe he will feel confident. He feels he understood the test material and thinks it went well. We discussed composite functions and their properties. We looked at numerous problems for evaluating them using equations, graphs, and tables. We examined the working backwards tactic, especially to determine for what value does the function give a specified value using a table. "

"In this session, we covered interpretation of the regression, estimating the variable of interest, and interpreting the variable coefficients. The last problem in the set was similar to another one we worked on, so that will serve as extra practice for the student. "

"The student read her SRP book and I asked her some comprehension questions. She remembered some of her spelling words so I wrote them in dot letters and she connected the dots with her pens to make the spelling word."

"The student was ready and eager to dive into completing his worksheet from school. I was very impressed that he knew exactly what to do after I read the instructions. There were a couple of tricky questions, and he guessed the answers. We then read one of his books, which he said was too easy. I left him with two fun worksheets to do over the break. One is a tad more challenging than his homework, but I am sure he will do well."

"The student has an upcoming exam, so we reviewed some of the topics on it. This included related rates, optimization problems, linear approximation, and trapezoidal rule. I have her more optimization and related rates problems to help her practice creating equations and relations to solve the problems. She has maintained good grades and received an A last semester."

"Today, we worked on Quantitative Comparisons, synonyms, and sentence completion. As a whole, the student was very strong with the Quantitative Comparison section. He did struggle a bit with the synonyms and sentence completion, and I will send over some prefix review as well as some more synonym drills for him to complete. I also recommended that he read the newspaper or just any book to become better acquainted with some of the words and give himself some context for the possible essay prompts. "

"The student is still working with percents and has gotten much more comfortable solving problems. Encouraging her to think about the problem contextually has reduced her incorrect answers, since she realizes when an answer is unreasonable. She is also working on proportional relationships and solving for the constant of proportionality. She was struggling initially to understand the concept of inverse proportionality. When we talked about real-life examples, it helped her connect to how it is possible. She was also initially unclear about the constant of proportionality, k. She knew she was solving for this variable, but she didn't understand what it actually meant. By turning a pure number problem into a contextual example, she then understood how the constant of proportionality changes an answer."

"The student and I reviewed chapter 5 material that he was unclear about. We discussed how to find solutions to absolute value questions as well as graphing them. We also reviewed how to determine where to shade an inequality graph (by using 0,0 as a test point). He then worked on his English homework where he had to use Shakespearean language to develop a short story between two characters. "

"Today we spent some time reviewing rounding to the nearest cent. We worked on a different method, involving drawing a box around the 'cents' part of the decimal and rounding up to that. This seemed to work better for the student, and he successfully redid some previous problems that he had gotten incorrect. I have suggested that he check his work on all long division problems, even if it is not required per the instructions. The last thing we worked on was word problems. I would like to have him practice writing out the full equation he needs, potentially in the style of an algebra problem (to play to his strengths), before attempting to solve."

"The student worked on homework - graphing parabolas using the vertex form of an equation. She isn't yet 100% in sync with identifying the vertex, axis of symmetry, and y-intercept, but she is getting much better. The (x-h)^2 gets a bit confusing. We will continue to work on that. "

"We had a very good session. We reviewed final exam study material, focusing on questions that the student identified as problematic. She understood all the material. She should do well on the exam. It has been a pleasure tutoring her. She is bright, engaged, and a pleasure to work with. "
