"I started off the session with the student doing a 5 minute multiplication drill worksheet. We then worked on understanding place value and how to round to the nearest of a place value. I can tell she is making progress with these. We looked at this concept by drawing number lines, which helped. We will need to review these again in our next session. We then did a review of our last session (dividing decimals) and she remembered how to do it really well. She did a division drill worksheet, and then finally did a challenge problem worksheet combining division and rounding. I was really impressed with her ability to focus on the tutoring session even after a long day of testing at school. She maintained a good attitude! I'm going to leave her with an online multiplication drill game to practice for 5 minutes every day. By doing this, she will get faster at multiplication, and thus be able to work faster on a variety of problems."

"The student and I covered topics from his test including but not limited to solving a system of equations when given the two equations, solving a system of equations by using the substitution method, finding the correct solution set to a system of inequalities when given the graph, translating matrices, and exponents. The student was very cooperative throughout the session. He was able to translate a system of equations into the matrix and select the correct answer independently. He is still struggling with algebraic operations, conceptually understanding graphs of equations and inequalities, and basic properties of exponents and needs assistance in solving these problems."

"The student needed to prepare for a test the following day. We reviewed simple kinematics problems. The student struggled a bit with visualizing the setup of the problems. Once we worked to address this issue, she was able to better understand how to solve the problems. The student voiced at the end of the session that she felt better prepared for her test the next day."

"The student and I worked on prepositions, synonyms and antonyms. We talked about some communication challenges she is overcoming and looked at new ways in which she might be able to work on her conversational English skills. She asked about words she didn't understand in the exercises we worked through and then discussed the meaning and proper usage."

"Today the student worked through his musical bibliography. He had about half of the assignment done, so he continued until he was able to finish almost the entire thing. Together we researched and discussed the meanings behind the songs and how we could interpret them. Then I edited his writing for the explanations behind the songs. This will hopefully allow him to bring his grade up in literature. He is working on his history outline. Then we will prepare for his final exams next week."

"The student and I spent most of the time going over probability and statistic algebra - permutations, combinations, and probabilities. Her math teacher had not covered a lot of the concepts at this point and hence the material was quite difficult, but together we covered how to use the combinations and permutations formulas, and how to calculate probabilities for dice rolls, card draws, and assorted questions with those two formulas. She had a good understanding at the end of the session."

"The student and I reviewed this week's homework. I was happy to see that his homework was completed with practically zero errors, both math and reading. We used Google to find the correct spelling of some words he was unsure of, and also used Google to find the definition of personality. He was very excited to be able to use Google in this way. Because he needed help with word problems, we worked on some two-step problems. He does individual math operations well, but still is working on how to apply them in word problems. We finished up our session with reading a few humorous poems and then exploring a scientific book about plankton. I left various extra practice problems that can be done to prepare for his test. "

"This was an algebra heavy session. We worked on dividing polynomial expressions which included factoring in order to create the LCD or least common denominator. The student is actually very capable and was able to work through all but one of the problems we looked at. We finished the session by working on calculating the pH and pOH of solutions for his chemistry class. "

"During this session, the student and I worked on his Introductory paragraph. We went over the structure of the paper several times, focusing on the wide-to-narrow structure of his first paragraph. We worked on tenses, sentence structure, cohesion, word choice, among other concepts. The student was again very receptive. "

"The student and I worked on exponential growth, exponential decay, radioactive decay, and population growth. The problems we worked on were from a study packet given by his professor. He was able to answer most questions accurately. "

"The student and I walked through the Algebra portion of a practice test. We were able to cover most of it, and finished all of the multiple choice successfully. It was good to first observe some of his studying and learning habits, and work through the problems slowly. For extra practice, however, I would practice some skills such as graphing, working with fractions, etc. I look forward to seeing him soon. "
