"The student and I prepared for the Calculus final that she will take tomorrow morning. We reviewed area bounded between two curves and integration by parts. She has a good idea as to what approach she should take with each type of problem. She will spend some time practicing the different types of integration by parts problems, as a couple of the problems that we completed during today's session were not as straight forward as they seemed."

"This was our best session yet. The student was motivated because of his test tomorrow, and came to our session with a few specific questions. He had his textbook at his side and we were able to refer to it as necessary. We together reinforced all of the material of Bien Dit chapter 1 -- vocabulary and grammar -- and cleaned up his questions regarding the indefinite articles un/une/des/de/d' (tricky business). We made sure that he had no further questions remaining in chapter 1, and he felt confident at lesson's end. His pronunciation of French has improved noticeably over the past two weeks, also. I am hoping that he will have nothing but good answers on his test tomorrow. As in past sessions, I urged him to inspect every page of the chapter to ensure that there was nothing which was vague or unfamiliar, and he appeared to have done this."

"In math, we touched on a number of topics that often come up on the test, including: analytical approaches to parallel and perpendicular lines, parallel line geometry properties and extending them to geometric figures (e.g. parallelograms, trapezoids), and finding intersection points. For science, we focused on comparing competing opinions and reading charts/tables for data in the context of the problem. The student had a great instinct (from experience) to use the science questions as a guide to sharply focus on just the information in the passage needed. It will help a lot, since a lot of the difficulty with ACT Science is cutting through the noise. "

"The student read her sight words. She read her book and then read her homework book. After that, she answered some comprehension questions. We looked over her spelling words, and she wrote them on my back. Then, I wrote some on her back. I gave her a fake spelling test. She got most of the words correct. The words she didn't get correct, I had her spell 3 more times."

"We worked through a variety of subjects on a study guide for her exam on Friday. She mainly struggled with tangent line approximations and the intermediate value theorem, but she learned very quickly and seemed to be much more comfortable with the topics by the end of the session."

"The student and I had a great session today! After a conversation with her and her mother, we determined that she needs help being successful with the 4th grade math curriculum in her 3rd grade AAP class. In a class of 25 students, she is not able to get the individualized attention she needs to be successful with 2 years of math. We started by working through a review of LCM and using this to add fractions. We then moved on to her quarter 2 assessment and discussed and resolved the questions that she had previously gotten wrong. She was much more confident and strong this time and realized that some of her mistakes were due to not reading carefully, while others deserved more attention. She made a plan to focus on fractions as well as move ahead with content such as algebra and multiplying and dividing decimals so that when she reaches this stage of the curriculum, she will have a leg up and prior knowledge. Overall, it was a great session! "

"The student and I worked on coordinate geometry. He had no problem executing the necessary functions. "

"We covered the remaining topics and types of questions she might see on the exam. We also did a few FRQ's for practice. We talked about setting up the next appointment and settled on next Monday. "

"The student and I did a comprehensive review of the formulas for surface area and volume of prism and cylinders, pyramids and cones, and spheres. The student has the ability to remember them logically and will practice more to make sure he has them memorized for his quiz."

"We prepared for an upcoming test, drilling through old problems. I recommended the student to keep an eye on her algebra weaknesses: paying attention to details, writing big enough and keeping her math organized, and drilling her pattern recognition (difference of squares, cubes, etc.). "

"The student and I started to work on Chapter 5 for Algebra 2. We continued to practice with exponent rules, including when to add/subtract/multiply exponents, converting from numbers to scientific notation and vice versa, simplifying negative exponents, and distributing exponents. He did very well on the questions. For ACT review, we focused on the math section, including word problems, solving equations, percentages, and sequences. "
