"I specifically went over slope-intercept forms, slope problems, and word problems with the student. I noted that she had the most difficulty with word problems, and I will assign her homework accordingly. The mother and I spoke, and I now know which specific topics to target prior to the student's Algebra. I left her with a decent amount of homework."

"I reviewed Algebra 1 material with the student for his upcoming test for placement into Algebra 2. We worked problems from chapter reviews for last 3 chapters. We focused on methods of factoring and solving polynomial equations."

"The student and I made more flashcards for root words and played the matching game again with all of the root words that she has studied. She remembers best by picture or action association, so I had her draw pictures for some of the cards and for others I acted out the meaning in an overly dramatic manner to help her recall. She also took another practice math portion of the ISEE and scored a 77%, an improvement over last time of about 3%. She seems to do better with each session."

"The student took her SSAT and scored in the 82nd percentile overall. Her Verbal went up from practice to 80% and Math was 87%. We did an RC section today and she answered all questions correctly except 1. She's going to take a practice test for homework."

"The student and I finished working on her last online assignment (section 4.6). We also completed and went over the fourth practice test. She was very confident completing this practice test and found correct solutions to each question. She is planning on completing the test and getting in touch with me afterward if she needs any clarification. "

"In this session, the student and I worked on her Geometry homework and went over some problems from her classwork as well. Her current topics involve conics, specifically graphing circles and parabolas and writing equations based on limited information. She had a good general understanding of using the graphs to extract information (foci, directrix, p-value), but she struggled a bit initially at transferring that information into equation form. After some practice and demonstrations, she quickly picked up on it and was able to complete her homework without much assistance. "

"The student and I reviewed her homework, which was to write a brief research paper on a topic of her choice, and to make independent corrections to the second half of her first essay. She did a good job on both, and showed marked improvements from our first session, as well as clear signs that she had assimilated what we had discussed. On the whole she did a great job, and we were able to further clarify details where she had made mistakes. We will begin looking at structuring and organizing an essay next week, beginning with the introductory paragraph. We discussed this in brief today, and I will aim to assign her homework that will allow her to practice this somewhat in advance."

"During our session, the student and I reviewed his Tom Sawyer essay. It is due on Friday and is on the way Mark Twain has his characters covet ordinary items/chores. During our review, we looked for two specific things: grammar and sentence structure. We were able to go over the entire essay and produce an essay that he was very proud off. While reviewing, he offered several suggestions on ways he could improve his essay, and I guided him through the edits. Overall, it was a very productive session. "

"I worked with the student on simplifying the square roots. The concept is not complicated, but the process of simplification requires a lot of writing. He can factor the numbers into their prime parts and factor variables with exponents, but he has difficulty keeping track of when he is writing a number as an exponent versus a multiplication. We will continue to work on this."

"This was my last session with the student. I will miss him very much. He is an awesome student and has a phenomenal family. He and I reviewed the material he went over in class that week and his homework. We also went over some concepts that were on his previous assessment. Overall, I have watched him grow tremendously in the time we worked together. I have seen his confidence in himself and his math abilities grow tremendously. In our last session I was working with him and he said, "Wait! I want to try to do it first, I can do it!" and that was music to my ears. During our first sessions, he would patiently wait for me to walk him through it or stop multiple time and say "I don't know what to do." This time he persevered through a difficult problem and succeeded! I am very proud of him. "

"The student completed Geometry assignments covering area of regular polygons and finding angles and lengths of triangles using trigonometry. He is enjoying math and likely one of the top students in his class now. I enjoy seeing the progress he has made. His work is paying off!"
