"We talked about how to read the given passages in order to save time and find the answers to the questions most efficiently by reading them first; we read sample passages and answered the questions; we talked about different strategies for eliminating answer choices and knowing what information to focus on; we talked about strategies for the science section; we practiced interpreting graphs and weeding out the useful information; we talked about ways to help your brain think faster by quickly drawing out word problems or writing on a provided drawing"

"The student and I tackled the ACT English review, finishing all of it surprisingly quickly. He demonstrated a strong mastery of the rules of English grammar and mechanics, leading me to believe that his poor performance on the English test in his last ACT was caused by nerves. I have asked him to do a few more practice drills anyhow just to make sure."

"Today the student and I went through his linear programming homework. I explained the general idea of what we were doing and what we were solving for, and he appeared to grasp the information very quickly. He completed his homework without a problem. Afterward, we reviewed some chemical nomenclature rules, and I suggested that he make flash cards to memorize the polyatomic ions and their oxidation numbers."

"The student and I covered Chapter 3, sections 3.1 and 3.2. We discussed Rolle's Theorem, the Mean Value Theorem, and briefly covered the introduction to 3.3, including applications of the first derivative for increasing and decreasing functions."

"Today the student learned about the Pythagorean theorem and various ways of manipulating it. We learned how to identify right triangles by only looking at the side lengths. Using the theorem, we were also able to determine if a triangle was obtuse or acute. The student also practiced using the theorem to solve word problems. Last, we had some more basic algebra review. "

"The student and I spent the first half of our session working on the essay section. We discussed essay strategies and she wrote two practice essays. The first essay she wrote showed improvement from that of 2 weeks ago, and the second essay was quite good. I think she is ready for the essay portion of the test. Afterwards, we focused on math."

"We reviewed for an upcoming physics test by working torque and other rotational and translational motion problems. This included conversions from revolutions and degrees to radians and back, as well as angular motion problems. We gave special focus to equilibrium problems."

"This was our last session together this summer. To end with math, I gave the student a small quiz. It was over the most recent section of the textbook and the section before that. While I hadn't told her this before giving her the quiz, I included that section to show her that she really does know this material. If she takes a minute to relax and think over the steps to find the answer, she is very capable. If she takes this with her throughout the next school year, she'll be a successful math student. Next, we finished up I Am Scout by discussing the final chapter and discussing Harper Lee's life compared to To Kill A Mockingbird. Finally, we finished watching the dvd of TKAM and talked about the differences between the book and movie."

"We reviewed homework and reading strategies. We went over the main idea of a passage, and she independently completed the task well. We also went over how to complete a plan to write a cohesive summary of a book. Overall, the session was good, and I am very pleased with the continued growth."

"The student and I covered projectile motion in more detail. She got her quiz back; she did good. She has a little trouble with exact angles; such as measured from the vertical."
