"This was our first session in a couple of weeks and the student came back with great energy. We finished four of the problems we set out to finish for her portfolio and did a little extra. We covered different types of word problems, but mostly ones that worked with the logistic growth model. She has a quiz next week and she said this was exactly what she needed to study for it. Today was an excellent session. "

"The student was able to do her homework from her reading book. She answered Monday's and Tuesday's homework questions. She also read her SRP book with me. She read with fluency. Any words that she did not know, she sounded them out. "

"Today, the student and I went over her homework assignments together. One of the assignments was a packet of worksheets that she had started completing in class. The second assignment was a couple of assigned homework problems from her textbook. Both of these assignments went over geometry two-column proofs and figuring out whether or not pairs of angles or segments in given figures were congruent. As always, she stayed concentrated and diligent throughout the entire session. "

"The student had a problem set in momentum conservation, including a ballistic pendulum, which she became quite good at solving. There were also elastic and inelastic collisions as well as explosions. She needed very little guidance by the end of the session."

"Today, the student and I reviewed for his upcoming English exam on To Kill a Mockingbird. His teacher created a very straightforward review, which helped us a lot. The student seems to have pretty good understanding of the book's theme and characters. He competed the questions on his first try with and 80% accuracy, so we reviewed and reviewed until he was at a 95% accuracy. I can tell from his first attempt that he will be just fine, and the fact that we reviewed over and over to get him to a 95% accuracy will hopefully give him a much better success rate. He is very intelligent, but I did make sure to remind him to review the questions once again before the exam."

"The student was prepared to take a quiz on what we studied during the previous session but the quiz was postponed for other students to learn what she has already studied. Her teacher doesn't want any of the students to draw anything on the paper for the quiz other than the solution. He is expecting them to be able to picture the unit circle and to pick the information from it. Therefore during our session we drilled the unit circle, connecting all components of the graph in every way. After the hour and half was up we made flashcards of the until circle: quadrants to type of coordinate, radians to coordinate, degrees to coordinate, and radians to degrees. She should be reviewing her cards for 10 minutes every night."

"The student and I worked on problems assigned by the professor. The problems in the worksheet covered the basics regarding lines. This included slope-intercept form, point-slope form, slopes, and y-intercepts. Most of the problems dealt with using the provided information to find the last piece of information. He seemed very confident with the material after we did several of the practice problems. "

"It was wonderful to see this student again today! She, as always, was organized and prepared for our work together today. We worked on a formal letter to ask for reconsideration after deferment to a top-choice college. She was able to effectively brainstorm and produce a great draft. "

"The student and I reviewed quadratic functions for his upcoming exam. We've been covering that topic for weeks so he had no problem completing the examples I gave him aside from improper calculations caused by misplaced negative signs. He also completed his homework involving higher degree polynomials. I drew a useful little chart on his notes describing the basic shape and end behavior of the general cases of higher degree polynomial graphs."

"The student worked hard on his chemistry research paper. We looked through what he was interested in writing about, then found some more research and put together a brief outline. We began to work on the paper itself, and I am confident we can finish that up by next week. If he wants to work on his paper between now and next Monday, it may help us move along to new concepts to explore. "

"In today's session, the student and I went through her notes on two of the chapters from her textbook as well as a video she watched in class on primates. The book chapters focused on ecology. Some of the concepts she was already clear on from previous classes. We focused on the vocabulary and some of the ideas she was less clear on, such as the way energy and matter move through the ecosystem, the difference between a habitat and a niche, and the different types of succession. The next chapters seem to explore ecology further, and we will continue on next week. "
