"In this session, I introduced the student to radicals as an operation. We discussed how radicals relate to exponents in a similar way to how division relates to multiplication. She practiced solving radicals that matched the degree of their radicands. I then introduced her to how to multiply and divide radicals. She also practiced solving problems with these concepts."

"We continued working on some complex word problem inequalities. The student was struggling with understanding what aspects of the word problem are necessary for the question. The student also needed to be taught volume and 3 dimensional shapes since the problems called for it. I taught him about volume and how three dimensional structures should be analyzed. I also encouraged him to look at problems in a step by step way. I did encourage him to do all future homework without a calculator to develop faster math skills. "

"We worked on solving one step and two step equations. We also worked on solving problems that involve fractions and mixed numbers, practiced adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing fractions and mixed numbers, and decimals too."

"The student and I covered probability and additional geometry concepts specifically for parabola. She has improved significantly since we started. She's learning at a faster pace and getting the concepts relatively quickly!"

"Today's lesson reviewed two point theorems (midpoint, distance, slope) and their inclusion in geometry."

"The accounting cycle was the focus of his class and we focused on the adjustments. We went through each adjustment and any corresponding calculations that accompany each adjustment. He has a test next week so we'll spend some time studying next Monday."

"Today, we covered solving sides of triangles given information about other sides and the altitude. We used material from the student's review sheet. While discussing the fact that it is not a good idea to simply memorize formulas, we derived some of the formulas she had for triangles from Pythagoras' theorem. I knew this was above anything she was probably taught in class, but exposure to derivations is important in the development of math. We made sure to go over multiple methods to solve problems. We also briefly discussed some algebra rules, such as multiplying variables with exponents and fractional exponents. The student was a pleasure to work with. She wants to learn and is willing to look at Math in different ways. "

"We reviewed the student's last test and she fixed her mistakes. She mostly knew the math and the concepts but was unfamiliar with the names of theorems and how to use those to prove things. We then worked on her math problems. She has a bit more to do before they are done, but it seems as though she is on track to finish. She understands concepts well, but most of her errors come from skipping steps and using mental math and making simple mistakes. I encouraged her to write more of her steps down to avoid these kinds of mistakes."

"The student and I had a great session. In chemistry we talked about titrations, acid base reactions, and buffer solutions. She is getting a better handle on this material, however she needs to continue to practice doing the actual computations of buffer solutions. In physics we talked about the conservation of momentum, and how to calculate impulse. "

"The student and I spent the first half of our session reviewing her homework. She had a few Math questions, but she did really well on English! She only had 5 wrong on the Social Science & Humanities passages. Good job! We spent some of our time completing hard Math problems from her test prep book, and we finished up our time together working through a practice test in Science. She did really, really well! I think Science and English are going to be a breeze for her on her March 1 test! "

"Today the student worked on assigned homework involving sum of geometric series. She understood the homework well. We also worked on two separate math worksheets that involved word problem and statistics. I recommended she do more practice problems. She was eager to learn the material and he was full of energy.
