"Today, the student and I made corrections on her math test. The test covered the topics of mean, median, and mode. She did not seem to struggle with the concepts. The questions she missed were because she didn't read the question correctly. I suggested to the student that she leave 5-10 minutes at the end of her next test to reread each question and double check her answers are correct and complete. I also think that the student needs to make her handwriting more legible. She was making minor errors in her work because she misread her own handwriting. In addition to her test, the student and I reviewed how to construct a frequency table and a histogram. She seemed to understand the material without any problems. She just needs to double check her work to make sure she didn't make a simple error (e.g., missing a data point)."

"The student was on top of his material, so I just previewed what his teacher would be doing in the coming week, as per her online video. He too was on top of his material, scoring a 92 in a recent test. I went through things to expect in the upcoming week and helped him through any difficulty he had. Starting next week, we will be jumping ahead of their schedule."

"The student got a 63 on her last test, so her aunt and I had talked during the week about what else we could do. We really want to work on the student's confidence so she doesn't get discouraged by her grades; she clearly knows the material, and the tests and quizzes just aren't reflecting that. She and I focused on 2 key points: writing bigger and double-checking her work. She tends to write very tiny, but then it can be hard to see the numbers. Right now she's adding numbers with multiple decimal places. We did each problem on the whiteboard. Then she did it again on her math packet, and if there was a discrepancy in the numbers, she did it a third time. This allowed her to find all of her mistakes. She definitely knows the material. We are really focusing on different study/ practice/ test-taking skills. "

"The student and I reviewed math and science on the ACT (completing most of a full section in each case). I believe most of her weakness is psychological -- if she can overcome her anxiety, I believe she is capable of a truly elite score. We will also devote some time to science time management."

"We finished reviewing for the student's test by completing her review packet. Most of these questions were review and some of the questions were repeated. At this point, she was fairly familiar with the material, but would still have some memorizing to do to help her with the test."

"Today, the student and I reviewed for a test that she was originally supposed to take earlier this week; however, it was moved to after the break. She was very confident with the concepts but was a bit worried about memorizing all the formulas. We discussed ways to study and memorize, and she seemed to be doing very well with the hardest practice problems by the end of our session."

"We reviewed reciprocal functions to include transformation of these functions (1/x). We also jointly solved word problems involving direct, inverse, and joint variation. The student excelled in these topics. Finally, we practiced adding and subtracting rational expressions. She struggled initially but caught on quickly. At the end of the session, she indicated that this topic was not covered in class, so she should be a step ahead. "

"We did a full timed reading comprehension section of a practice test today, split into two 30-minute sections, and reviewed the questions together. The student did well on this, and we will continue practicing with timed sections to improve her comfort with them."

"We primarily did a review of older topics, such as improper fractions, reducing, and long division. We did spend some time going over a few divisibility rules to address some incorrect answers from another assignment, as well as to help the student with reducing fractions with larger numbers. He also identified topics that are likely to be on his upcoming test, which we will spend time practicing tomorrow."

"We covered a lot today in terms of understanding the grading requirements for the student's writing assessment test and how to properly construct an essay worth perfect points. We discussed and practiced key strategies for concise and effective organization, structure, and identifying the appropriate business vocabulary to use. We also analyzed and discussed various business news articles to reinforce and practice how to apply proper writing techniques into real-world business concepts and problems."

"Today we were able to finish up reviewing in anticipation of an upcoming chemistry test. We reviewed a bit of what we covered last time, especially in terms of conjugate acids/bases and the meaning of pH/pOH. We focused on solving equilibrium problems, and did a few practice problems to really understand what each part of the ICE table means. The student did a great job reviewing here; I think remembering what each letter stands for (I=initial, C= chance, E = equilibrium) will help a lot. We also spent a bit of time on understanding what it means when we have a small pH value vs. a small pOH value, and how we might tie that into understanding a small Ka value vs a small Kb value. Overall, the student seems to have a solid understanding. "
