"We discussed a review sheet on derivation methods and techniques. The student understands the calculus very well. Any more questions regarding these topics will be discussed further in our session tomorrow. "

"The student and I worked on her trigonometry homework. She was very good at identifying whether to use sin, cosine, or tangent to determine angles or lengths of a triangle, and she was adept at using her calculator's functions. Her only room for improvement in this regard is visualizing the word problems in order to correctly place the values/distances. In general, she has done very well this semester and had an overall B, replacing her previous grade. Well done!"

"The student has a math test tomorrow on measurements - converting units, understanding the relationship between angle measurements with coterminal sides. She felt very confident after the review in class today, so we focused on her vacation math homework and state prep review. Her math vacation homework was in the format of state test multiple choice questions for math. She whizzed through a couple dozen questions. We also looked at some science multiple choice questions, which she felt proud that she knew the answers. "

"Today we worked on a type of proof of some equations. The student was having a hard time implementing the procedure at first, but we did some practice and I showed her some ways to simplify equations that helped her prove two things were equal a little easier."

"Today the student and I went over the feedback that she received for her project outline, which I also provided feedback on before it was submitted. The comments that were made were similar in that, she has some great facts about the case, but the grade could be improved by (explicitly) relating all of this information back to the case and topic at hand. I think she is clearer on what this feedback entails, and I feel confident that she will be able to address this issue in the next draft. We also worked on the rebranding case she will need to create. We discussed a few different examples, breaking them down in order to identify some of the considerations that need to be made when she creates her own rebranding strategy. I think that by going through this process, she will be able to utilize a similar approach to the talking points assignment that she has to do."

"Today, the student and I reviewed homework only. His homework was in social studies and science. He was able to complete his homework with almost no assistance, and I checked all of his work, and the answers were correct. Today's session was very simple, and he seems to be doing well in all of his subjects, as well as the tutoring session. I am very pleased."

"We covered slopes of lines (with points, perpendicular/parallel), word problems, function notation, and transformations of lines. The student showed that he understands the ideas that we talked about. "

"The student and I covered data modeling and linear regressions as well as residuals. She was concerned with regression lines and residuals the most, but picked up on them well enough. Skills with the graphing calculator to achieve results were discussed. She showed a good understanding of what was going on in the material conceptually."

"In our last session before the state assessment tests, we continued going over various questions similar to those that will appear on the test. The student does very well with the various question types. I advised him to listen carefully to the test administrator and think before he answers. I also stressed that he should not be nervous and that the questions are supposed to be difficult so he should not be discouraged if he is confused. Best of luck on Saturday!"

"We covered greatest common factor, oxygen, and nitrogen cycles. The student was required to use the concept of greatest common factor to solve some math puzzles. She was able to decipher the clues to formulate solutions to the puzzles. She also comprehended the nitrogen and oxygen cycles. She was extremely studious during tonight's session. She had a productive session."

"We moved on to buffers and how they were created. I also introduced to the student the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation so that he could use it for subsequent calculation of buffer pH. He understood the purpose of buffers and was able to complete practice problems with little difficulty."

"I covered rigid body equilibrium and stress and strain. The student had some trouble initially with the rigid body equilibrium concepts. I included a way to think about rotational equilibrium as a balance of torques. She quickly picked up that they have to be the two numbers (force and distance) have to multiply to be the same number, which showed she understood the concept. She got a 100 on her last exam. The win is she is able to understand the concepts and use them to solve the problems. "
