"We went over tax calculations and other word problems. I was very impressed by the student's level of understanding of the topic. I do think we need to do further work on word problems."

"We reviewed cross multiplication utilizing the distributive property. She had a review worksheet that covered past concepts. In the future lessons if we have extra time I will give her more practice with LCM, GCF, and reducing radicals. She has a math exam on Thursday, and we will try to have another session on Wednesday to prepare. "

"The student finished his last two pages of balancing equations. He got a 100% (20/20) on his quiz last Friday. He had two more pages to complete, which he did. He is golden and works so hard. I am so proud of him and tell him every time I work with him."

"We worked on a review sheet to help the student prepare for an exam tomorrow. This covered quite a range of topics, starting with 2-step solving of linear equations. We finished up with domain and range of quadratics (parabolas). This is a topic we just started working on the last time we met, and it is the only regular topic that the student is not completely comfortable with yet. I typed up a sheet for him on the mathboard for him to print out with explanation of a, h, and k as related to the vertex of the parabola. When this becomes quick recognition for him, he should be very swift at getting those ranges down. We also had a chance to review clearing fractions with the "would be" LCD and function notation. As usual, he was pleasant and cooperative, and I knew he was thinking hard when he said his head was starting to hurt! That is normal when learning math."

"The student and I worked on long division. We worked specifically on division key terms, dividing 1 digit numbers by 4 digit numbers, dividing numbers with a zero in the quotient, and division word problems. He understands long division. He should be reminded to follow the steps and check his work."

"The concepts covered were volume, integration using trigonometric substitution, finding the centroid, finding the sum using telescopic series, and geometric series. The student shows a positive attitude and is eager to learn the concepts being discussed. She was very confident during the entire online session."

"They started working on vectors the first week back to school. The student was pretty confused about what they were and how to work with them so we went over all the basics. We reviewed the homework together, and then we went over some of the other types of problems in the section. We also reviewed the concepts for the next section. She did really poorly on the math section of her PSAT, so she really wants to start working on some SAT prep. I told her I would make sure to bring some practice problems."

"The student told me he is going to take the exam this Thursday. We continued his review packet through theorems, parallel lines, similarity, dilation, proportionality, scale, ratio of dilation, and trigonometry of the triangle. We finished most of the topics. I checked his understanding, and he understood all the material we reviewed. He is more confident at solving these kinds of problems. Overall, the win from this session is that he had a better understanding of theorems, similarity of triangles, trigonometry, and related topics."

"We reviewed a number of logic games. We discussed diagramming and template construction techniques, and we briefly touched on reading comprehension techniques. The student is taking the LSAT on Saturday and she's extremely well prepared; she's going to do great."

"We prepared for the student's test by looking at solving two equations with two variables. These were solved by substitution, addition, or the subtraction method. Word problems gave him a difficult time, so more practice is needed. We'll work on that in our next session. "

"I covered vector calculus. There were two problems: one is a baseball over a wall problem, and the other is a centripetal acceleration problem. The student was having trouble setting up the problems, but understood how to do them. His attitude was fine. I showed him the logic behind how to set up the different problems. This helped a lot."
