Session Summaries by Tutors

"The topics we covered included working with similar triangles and calculating the ratio of similar shapes in terms of length of sides, area, and volume. The student needed additional assistance understanding the connection between the different ratios, but quickly picked up the subject with assistance. The student received an A on a quiz this week and feels prepared for the test."

"I assisted the student with her geometry homework, which was about ratios and proportions. I guided her through her worksheet and double-checked her work. We spent a good deal of time with long division and long multiplication, since she had not done these for a while, and with setting up the proportions correctly. I guided her through the long multiplication and long division and let her know when and why her proportions were incorrectly set up."

"This was our last session together. We looked through final exam worksheets and reviewed past material. I have confidence that she will do well on her final. She has an A in the class at the moment. "

"We began the session today with the student's favorite subject, math. He is very good at math because he is able to perform most of the operations in his head and is not afraid to find the right answer to the question. He did well with the equations but had difficulties with word problems. After working on math, we began to work on reading. We read two selections. While reading this selections, he picked out words he did not know and underlined them. I also had him select the facts that were in the readings. After we worked on reading for about 45 minutes we began to work on writing. I am thinking for the next couple of sessions we are going to focus on reading and writing. "

"For this session, the student first worked on her homework. Her class has just started a new topic which includes algebraic expressions and solving them in word problems. In addition, this included writing algebraic expressions in different formats. For example, 4x - 12 is equivalent to 4(x - 3). She had a bit of trouble setting up a couple of them using variables, but once the expression was set up she had no problem plugging in values and finding the solutions. Once her homework was complete, I gave her a practice worksheet based on her homework. She did fine, and only had a couple minor errors that were easily fixed. She let me know what she did and didn't understand, which I appreciated so I can prepare for the next session."

"We split our session time between math and writing. The student is beginning long division. We began by finding partial quotients on her homework and then practiced traditional long division. She also had a writing assignment that needed to be completed. We worked together to plan her writing and determine which details from her mentor text best supported her writing."

"We did a practice math session and went over it. The student did well, but some problems were missed towards the end. This section was without calculator, and she did admit she wasn't confident without it. After going through the section, we were able to get explanations for most of what she missed. We decided next time we meet, we will take a step back to hit problem areas for her in greater detail now that she has seen how the test will work."

"We got a lot done today. I had the student read two books (one of which was quite easy, and another more challenging one.) We did one page of his workbook to practice writing. I also had him write a short story, which he enjoyed doing, to practice using grammar and forming sentences. Finally, we played a match game, which helped accustom him to seeing his spelling words."

"Student 1: Rational expressions--simplification, multiplication, and division. Use proof of quadratic formula as warm-up. Attitude: Excellent. Student 2 : Reviewed parallels and transversals with algebraic equations included. Introduced to trigonometric ratios. Attitude: Excellent. He learned the trig ratios very quickly--very, very quickly--and I was very impressed."

"Today we covered organic molecules. The student was struggling with the identification of these molecules, though she had a good handle on identifying chemical groups. I walked her through an assignment that had her sort and examine different types of molecules, including amino acids, sugars, and nucleic acids. I had her note distinguishing features of the molecules at the beginning of each set. We practiced her identification at the end of the session with cut out images. I recommended looking for a similar mode of practice online."

"The student and I defined negative and fractional exponents. We discussed inverse functions and which exponents are inverses of each other. We solved complicated fourth-degree equations by parameterizing into quadratics. We found real and imaginary roots of quadratic equations. We also practiced multiplying binomial factors."
