"The student finished all of his grammar homework and his math. He had a very easy time with everything we worked on."

"During this session, we reviewed the nature and transformation of square root functions, absolute value functions, parabolas, word problems relating to functions, and domain/ range tables. We related domain and range to all of the different types of graphs. The student will need some more time with the material before he is comfortable; however, he does understand it. I would suggest that he approach his teacher to get some additional test prep material."

"The student has been doing well lately-better grades, more comprehensive organization, etc. The student made a weekly calendar for his homework that he has promised to follow."

"Yesterday, the student started homework that she has due for next week. Her homework covered proportions, until rates, and conversion rates. She does well with proportions. I gave her tips to determine rates. I told her that usually the smaller number goes for the denominator when determining rate. Also, typically for rates, the units are distance/time such as m/s or mph. Conversion rates look like they will be a learning curve for her. Converting ft/s to mph. I told her to convert one at a time, first time and then distance to make it simple. With some more practice she will do well."

"The student seems to getting more comfortable with the material. She checks her work and can usually tell when there is a mistake. She makes effective use of our time together by doing the homework ahead of time and saving the difficult problems for our sessions. Her textbook focuses on business problems, and she is getting more comfortable with the financial applications of calculus. There are always a handful of problems that require a graphing calculator or spreadsheet program creating polynomial regressions, and we are improving our skills with these tools. At the end of the session, I reviewed limits with her, which I'm probably going to do each time because they are easily forgotten when you get this far into calculus."

"We covered part of the calculator free response section for an AP Calculus test. Right now, the thing the student is struggling with is to be able to connect all of the things that he has learned throughout the year. He can do computation very well, but he needs work in thinking about what is actually happening. He is doing very well, and I think that he will do good on the AP exam, but he just needs to work at it until then. We will continue to work on that together. "

"The student and I got to work on math today! We were working with the coordinate plane - plotting points, naming points, creating reflections in the x-axis and in the y-axis, and finally creating shapes through plotting points. He had some difficulty reading the questions and understanding what they were asking him to do, so we spent a good amount of time re-reading problems and annotating them. We also did some hands-on color coated practice to discern between the two types of reflections. We finished the day with a little bit of Spanish practice in preparation for his test coming up. I was very pleased to hear about how well he did on his last science test, and we will continue the in-depth study methods we exercised in future sessions. "

"I worked with the student on pre-algebra--word problem to equation skills. He is improving at his understanding of how equations work and how to structure his thinking. It is likely that I will need to improve his baseline equation skills before we can move on to more complex problems. "

"The student and I went over her homework and prepared for her test. She continues to show extremely high proficiency with the material. She rapidly recognizes her errors when they are pointed out, so I hope that she takes the time to check her work on her upcoming test. If so, she should do very well."

"During this session, we covered polynomials (factoring, finding the roots), graphing functions, and solving simple quadratic equations. The student made several calculation errors, but went back and changed them as soon as he found them. He was eager to participate and diligently tried to solve every single practice problem. During this session, I emphasized working on old algebra exams, so I assigned specific problems that he had the most difficulty with. At the end of the session, I assigned him a full exam from a previous year to solve in a limited time period to better prepare him for the actual test. He told me he scored 78 on the January exams and is going to retake it to get a better score."

"The student came with questions regarding inverse functions from the worksheet I provided. After I answered her questions she was able to complete it with ease. She is able to find inverse functions and prove that they are inverses easily and is able to find composites with values as well. For the next session we are planning on going over her practice exam again, and possibly begin discussing graphs of a variety of functions. "
