"We reviewed the midpoint and distance formulas, as well as the Pythagorean theorem. The course is just beginning so we worked through a few problems and discussed the format of future sessions. One focus for future studies should be to remember to distribute negative symbols when manipulating equations. The student seems hard working and ambitious, as well as eager to do well. "

"The student and I covered sections 3.8, 9.1, 9.2, and 9.3. He was able to complete all of the homework sections for those listed sections as they were past due. We will meet on Thursday this week to continue working on sessions in the library. "

"The student and I had a tough time today on account of power outages in her area, but we did manage to get through quite a bit on implicit differentiation. She gets the overall concept; she just gets a little hung up when trying to deal with more complicated derivatives involving chain/power rules as well as implicit differentiation. We talked about thinking about the problem in pieces and tackling it from there to simplify the process. It seems that her teacher focuses on a lot of graphically based questions, but since she didn't have her textbook, it was harder to practice specifics. I sent her worked out example problems, as well as some more practice problem. Hopefully next session, we'll be able to clear up any remaining questions she has."

"We broke down a deadline for each essay/school. We brainstormed and finalized ideas. The student and I both did research on school essays from last year of students who were accepted. I edited his honors application and then edited/spent time working with him on his common app main essay outline."

"The student and I worked together for a short period of time today as his SSAT was the following day. We completed the questions of the day and then discussed strategies for each of the sections. "

"This was an excellent session. We worked on the start of his essay on The Scarlet Letter. The student was engaged the entire time and you could tell he had not only read the book but thoughtfully considered the material. He needed some work setting up the thesis. I tried to stress that every paragraph should relate to the thesis and every sentence of a paragraph should follow the main idea in the topic sentence. I found out he received an A on the previous paper we worked on together although it did need a few specific improvements his teacher requires. I think he is close to really breaking through in understanding how to set up an exemplary paper."

"The student and I began reading his book for school, "The Humming Room." He reads well and seems to understand the scenario presented. We also went over the required vocabulary for the first five chapters, and I encouraged him to do more exercises quickly while the reading was fresh in his head."

"We went over the student's next chapter on electric forces and electric fields. I gave her a pretty comprehensive overview, emphasizing the similarities and differences compared to the gravitational field, and then we used vectors to calculate the force and electric fields at various points due to simple charge configurations. It was a lot of new material to absorb, but she is doing a good job with it."

"Today we continued with the chapter review from our previous session. The topics covered were midpoint formula, quadratic equations, axis of symmetry, vertex, max/min point, and graphing parabolas. The student did pretty well with the review. After finishing the review, we worked on few word problems dealing with quadratic equations, which were pretty straightforward."

"The student and I reviewed properties of exponential and logarithmic forms of expressions, condensing and extending logarithmic expressions, solving logarithmic and exponential equations, and evaluating exponential and logarithmic expressions. "

"The student scored 92% on his chapter test last week, and I'm so proud of him! His class started chapter 11 (areas) this week. I reviewed the definitions of a triangle, parallelogram, and rhombus with him, then also reviewed the formulas for calculating the area of each. He then worked through his homework (pg 431-433) until his iPad battery gave out. I noticed that he has a tendency to solve his equations left to right, so I explained to him the benefit of a top-down approach. He also could benefit from sketching larger diagrams in order to give himself more space to label them with needed information. He told me that his teacher had given his approval for us to communicate; I will reach out to him on Wednesday to get his feedback on what prior content he feels the student would benefit most from additional assistance. "

"During the session, the student and I continued to read through LWW, analyzing key themes and motifs throughout the story, especially focusing on the good vs. evil plot that pervades the story. We looked at the arrival of Father Christmas as a prophetic precursor to the arrival of Aslan, in addition to noting the progression of Edmund's character in terms of the development, climax, and consequence of his growing greed and self-interest. The student continues to seem interested in the story and seems to be growing in her desire to read interesting stories. "
