"We are continuing to go through the student's assessment exam packet. I plan on making sure that I have a lesson plan, so I am not trying to tackle multiple subjects at one time."

"During this session we covered multiplication of fractions using the methods that the student has been learning in school. She has clearly made improvements with the method of box multiplication that her teacher has been working on in class. We also continued to practice the 7 times tables using a dice rolling game. "

"We focused exclusively on the chain rule. We did trig functions, polynomials, logs, and exponents. We discussed how to find common denominators and simplify our answers."

"Thursday was the student's 3rd Algebra 2 tutoring session. It was very successful! We completed a review of all concepts and topics under logarithms. Questions from this review included converting between exponential and logarithmic form, converting between natural exponential and logarithmic form, evaluating logarithms, evaluating natural logarithms, change of base formula, product property of logarithms, quotient property of logarithms, power property of logarithms, solving exponential equations using factoring, common and natural logarithms, and solving logarithmic equations. The student did a spectacular job of moving very quickly through about 25 problems, combining many properties and rules of logarithms, recognizing patterns, and completing most calculations mentally. He truly understands the big ideas and specific details of logarithms. The student is very responsible, hard-working, and self-motivated to learn and get a big jump start on reviewing and studying for the final exam. Excellent work!"

"Worked on practice problems from an algebra assessment exam. Topics focused on included transformations of functions such as shifts up/down and left/right and widening/narrowing, using the point-slope formula to determine the equation of a line that goes through a point(s), and determining if a point lies on a line, etc."

"Last night we continued reviewing for the student's algebra test that she is taking next week. She continues to show significant improvement but needs to dedicate a lot of time to studying in this final week. I helped her to make a list of important concepts to remember and to make flashcards on--please encourage her to make them ASAP. Also, she should continue the practice test and redoing problems from last year's test. Good luck!"

"We covered conic sections. Specifically, we went over how to find the focus and directrix of a parabola and then moved to ellipses. We worked on starting with the equation and then finding the points (locations) of foci and vertices along major and minor axes, and conversely we worked on starting with the locations of vertices and foci and then finding the equation. The student did a great job of asking questions and finding specific problems to work on. "

"We went over diabetes and medicine (the field) in general. The student has a great attitude about the material. I told her to read a few articles before we meet again. "

"Today the student worked on putting together his science fair project. He had a fairly finished product, but we worked on cleaning it up a little bit and went over some questions that he should be expecting from his teacher and any judges. "

"Today, in our phonetics portion of the session, we reviewed some of the earlier lessons/ sounds, then read and sounded out words that ended in -igh and -er and reviewed Lesson 11 in the Learn to Read in 100 Easy Lessons book. We practiced the same sounds and related words with the flash cards, and did some writing practice to help the student write down words with those endings, and also to help her distinguish a minor confusion she had with the letters B, D, and P. She worked very well with the materials and enjoyed the transition to reading small portions of both reading books: Enough Inigo Enough by Janet Doman, and Frederick by Leo Lionni. It was a very positive tutoring session. As before, her mom has a collection of the materials we used and will reinforce what we covered during our session. "

"Today the student and I continued reviewing trigonometric equations using identities. She seems to be gaining confidence with this material."
