Recent Tutoring Session Reviews

"The student requested assistance with her homework on solving systems of equations. We then reviewed problems on linear equations."

We discussed modifier agreement of gender and number. We reviewed a test she recently took. We went over strategies for reviewing Spanish I. "

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

"Today, the student and I covered composite functions, exponential functions, and logarithmic functions. Her teacher had introduced most of these concepts in class but she still had some questions about the content. I explained each concept and gave her many practice problems. She had many "ah ha!" moments today as she began to fully understand the material. We even covered future topics she will learn tomorrow that will be on her test next Wednesday. We will have another session next Tuesday for a final review before her test."

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

"Today, we went over systems of inequalities. The student has a solid grasp of this. We worked on setting up a word problem and which area of the graph to shade. We also went over her response to the article on gun control. She is learning how to revise her writing and is showing interest in the process. She is supposed to further revise her response before our session on Sunday."

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

"The student and I discussed her experience last weekend with the SSAT. She felt like she was prepared and didn't find anything surprising. She thought she did a good job of knowing when to skip questions and how to manage her time. She wrote an essay that was fun and engaging, she felt. We also worked this evening on preparing for her semester tests that she will have tomorrow at school."

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

"Today the student and I looked at non-fiction passages since he had trouble with these yesterday. He seems to have difficulty determining the meaning of words in context. I encouraged him to look at the context and not answer what he knows or thinks the word means in general. We then moved on to some of the fraction topics he is still having trouble with. I will go over this all again tomorrow during our last session before the exam."

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

"Student 1: We covered lines of symmetry and similar triangles. We reviewed that regular polygons have both linear and radial symmetry. Parallelograms have linear symmetry. Then, we covered chemistry. We learned about stoichiometry. Student 2: We covered simple and compound interest. Both students understood the material fairly well. "

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

"Today the student worked on her spring break homework packet and we reviewed some factoring methods. She seems to understand the factoring methods much better already, and we will continue to work on these concepts moving forward. "

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

"We went over simplifying radical expressions. The student didn't really know how to work it out in the beginning, but I saw that he kept trying. I included strategies like how you know if a number is divisible by 3. We went over some practice problems in his packet. I felt comfortable leaving today knowing he understands the concepts"

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

"Today, we reviewed different methods for factoring different types of polynomials, specifically grouping. The method he was shown utilized several odd and roundabout concepts, so we worked on a more direct and concise method for factoring. We also worked out some specific methods that worked well for the student."

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

"Good session with the student. We mostly worked on his essay through Google Docs, discussed what needs to be added/taken away, and when he needs to submit his work. We will hopefully meet tomorrow to get his draft for assignment #4 completed. "

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

"The student and I reviewed several modules of his online homework, focusing on measurement. His teacher appears to be increasing the workload (most likely because they've fallen behind in the syllabus). "
