"The student did really well in our session. We covered sections 6.5 and 6.4. We will review for the test next week!"

"The student had an exam review sheet from the first semester. We worked through several different types of problems on it just so I could evaluate his math ability. My plan is to identify a list of problem types from this worksheet and to work through them one at a time until he has mastered all of them. We will meet next Monday in the library. I'll send him a homework assignment covering one problem type with a worked example and a few similar problems to complete by next Monday."

"The student is a bright student who already understood most all of the Algebra concepts but was having some trouble with rate-distance-time story problems. We went over stating the variables at the top, noting that there is only one distance and one time variable. To reduce calculation errors, we decided to keep calculations in fraction rather than decimal form and then reduce from there. Also, we went over a more efficient way of multiplying large numbers and giving herself plenty of space to work on scratch paper. I believe these strategies will save her time and increase her accuracy when dealing with story problems which have many complex variables involved. It should also help with any situation that calls for calculations without a calculator. Overall I think the session went well and that she greatly improved as a math student. "

"Today the student and I reviewed her homework, and I noticed that she has some missing background knowledge (such as opposite operations, fraction grinding, dividing fractions, etc.). We went go over those concepts in detail, and she seems to have a much better understanding of them now. I believe that continuous practice on these problems is the best way for her to commit them to memory, and we will continue to work on them during our sessions. Overall, the session was successful."

"This session mainly was to review material in simplifying and solving for rational functions. The student had a review sheet that was intended for practice, so we worked through all the problems on it. She had begun already when I arrived, so we reviewed these, and then proceeded from there. Throughout the problem set, she had a good grasp for the way to solve them, but she would make small errors with forgetting negative signs. Regardless, if she remains vigilant, she will have no issues on the test."

"Good to see the student again. During this session, we went through the remaining questions he had on power series and Taylor series before entering into partial differential equations, separable variables, first-order differentials, second-order differentials, slope fields, and Euler's method. He is doing well."

"The student has been working on kinematics and graphs. He had some difficulty at first with the graphs and understanding what information they provide. After some practice, he was able to get it. We then moved on to more challenging problems having to do with motion in one dimension. He needs to work on identifying what information is not given in the problem, and how that is also a hint on how to solve it. We will continue with this next week."

"The student and I reviewed for her test today. We discussed the discriminant, complex numbers, domains of real and complex functions, and the determinant of a matrix. She said she understands it all well but just wanted to review it to make sure she had everything down."

"Today, the student read 126 words for his hot read! He started at 76 and worked his way up. We also reviewed some of the sight words and practiced the new list. He did an excellent job of using text evidence when answering questions, and I totally noticed a difference in his writing and spelling tonight! Great work! "

"This tutor met with student to practice spelling words and complete math word problems. Tutor helped student listen for letter blends to help recite and spell words. This tutor did 2 mock spelling tests with student. Then this tutor helped student read and locate key words to solve 2 word problems. The student was able to quickly solve the math problems on his own. He was able to determine and used his own number models for solution accuracy. Family is communicating with classroom teacher to generate a list of skills tutor will practice over the summer. "

"During this session, we focused on chi-squared tests of significance. We reviewed how to compare a model distribution to data. We also talked about the steps of a test of significance (conditions, hypotheses, calculations, and conclusions). "
