"We worked on the standard hyperbolic conic. The student is able to graph the equations now, but initially wanted to only graph the guide rectangle. I believe this was because of confusion in procedure. "

"The student and I studied for his Calculus test. We went over his previously completed worksheets which covered integration, graphing functions, finding local extrema, points of inflection and concavity. He has a good foundation of mathematical concepts, but he needs more practice solving more involved problems on the newer material. I had him go over most of his worksheet problems and I gave him some more problems from the textbook and problems I wrote which tested him on the same material. He is a bright kid. "

"During our session, the student and I covered concepts in geometry. We went over his worksheet on sin, cos, tan, and how to find triangle side measures given angle measurements. He understood the concepts very easily. He continues to be a very motivated student who genuinely wants to understand all concepts in chemistry and geometry. "

"I have reviewed Algebra Math Sections 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3 (Simplifying Radical Expression and Performing Operations) with the student. She practiced the problems. I have explained the concepts so that she can understand better. "

"This was our first session. The student is bright and grasps concepts easily. We covered word problems, especially distance (d=rt). Once she knew the formula she was able to easily apply it. We also covered expressions with variables on both sides, and I had her work through several problems. Her confidence seems to be growing. "

"We covered projectile motion in physics and finding the roots of polynomials in pre-calculus. I think I was able to clear up the student's confusion about vectors in physics. "

"We reviewed for the student's upcoming Chapter 4 exam on polynomial functions. She had already completed her Chapter review on factoring with common variables, difference of two squares and quadratics, binomial theorem, and synthetic division. I went over with her factoring addition/subtraction of two cubes, polynomial division, rational root theorem, and using the rational root theorem to simplify higher order polynomials down to quadratics. I also showed her how to check to see if she found the polynomial correctly using her calculator. She feels confident about her upcoming test."

"The student and I began the session with a reading comprehension activity. I gave him a rather lengthy reading passage with some questions after the passage. His reading comprehension is improving. He is able to remember where the information for the question is, which enables him to find the answer more quickly. We also began to work on scientific notation. He did well with this activity. He even did well with the negative notations, which impressed me. He understood the concept rather quickly and was able to solve the problems on his own. For the next session, we will work on factoring and solving algebraic equations."

"We went over related rates and exponential growth and decay. Overall the student was very receptive to the strategies I was teaching her, and she picked everything up very quickly! I am going to email her some extra practice as well as the packet of integrals. "

"The student's school was on break this week, so we did a review. We covered how to solve single-variable equations, the distributive property, inequalities, factoring, and the standard form of a quadratic equation. He often looked at a problem and said he didn't know how to do it, but when asked a few prompting questions he was often able to remember how to solve the problem. "

"We covered more subtraction problems and focused on trying to subtract numbers like 6 and 7 from various other numbers. The student sometimes needs help with remembering what number she is counting from, whether she is counting up or down, and also when to stop counting to achieve her answer. While she makes occasional mistakes, she shows great understanding of the concepts and just needs to keep practicing. She is very enthusiastic and eager to be challenged. "
