"We continued our work on variables. We focused on how multiplying, dividing, and adding positive and negative numbers change the outcome of the variables. The student is understanding the material very well and has some extra problems to use as practice."

"We discussed proofs, line segments, rays, rules of angles, circumference and area of a circle, distance formula, and Pythagorean theorem."

"The student has a worksheet and an exam that are due tomorrow. The first assignment focused on radical functions, while the exam was a review of previous topics such as synthetic division, finding the roots of polynomials, and the Rational Root Theorem. The student did well with the Algebraic calculations; however she should review the concepts and theorems so that they are committed to memory. I will contact the parent today with information to further assist the student with her assignment. She may email me with questions if she needs to."

"During this session, we worked on maximizing area and perimeter given limitations, finding maxima and minima, and using a line of best fit given a table of data. The student continues to approach the material with a positive attitude and received instruction very well. Her current grade in the course is above a 90, so if she continues to work hard, she will definitely meet her goal of achieving an A in the class. "

"The student will be tested on all her math concepts since the beginning of the year within the next month. We reviewed her latest section on ratios, unit rates, and proportions, and she did really well on her quiz for the section that I gave her. She seems to really understand this section. I warned her that math is accumulative and we need to keep integers in mind because they will continue to make an appearance in her math sections. In addition, we worked on creating science notes for her exam at the end of the month. "

"We covered the cumulative review the student was given, as well as graphing of quadratic equations. She was doing really well with this material. She tackled this material head on, and really did not need much guidance from me. This relates to what I said before: she is smart enough to do extremely well in algebra, but she really needs to believe in herself first. Slow down, check your work, the usual. I really want to emphasize checking her work more over the next few sessions; that needs to be a bigger habit."

"The student and I continued looking at her garden activity. She calculated the volume of her garden to identify how much soil she would need. She then converted from meters to feet to calculate how many bags of soil to purchase. She then found the total price of the soil. I was really impressed by her logic when calculating the price. She asked how there could be three places after the decimal point if we were using money. We then discussed rounding, which she knew because we covered it the week prior. I left her with a bit of work still, so she will be calculating the price of fencing for her garden, while still converting from meters to feet."

"We cover exponential rules and scientific notation. The student is grasping the concept. She really got it. I love working with her. She is an awesome student and I can't wait to work with her again."

"During our session, the student and I worked on practice interview questions. I prepared sample interview questions (similar to what he sees at work) and asked him to answer them. The purpose of this exercise was to have him put to work all the skills he has learned so far. Overall, there is a sharp improvement between the work he did on Friday and the work he was producing before we started our tutoring sessions. He is more conscious about what he writes and how his skills can be used to deliver his message. I saw that we still need to work on distinguishing between dependent and independent clauses. "

"The student has completed multiple paper and online reading assignments during the previous week. I looked at the results while she completed a quick fact/opinion exercise. We then worked on improving her ability to summarize based on a series of given short paragraphs. Her fluency and ability to identify key information is improving, but she still needs help to properly summarize the main ideas of reading assignments, especially informational texts. We then answered some comprehension questions based on a leveled short fiction story, which she did better on thanks to using chunking strategies and being able to relate the content of the story to her own experience. We then completed her assigned science reading and questions, using similar strategies for chunking informational readings. For the coming week, we will continue to focus on turning retell/annotations into proper summaries, so that we can then move on to other comprehension strategies. "

"We worked on several handouts. We worked through a mixed review and answered several questions that the student had. We also corrected some of his problems and spent time discussing where his errors were. He had also started worksheets on trigonometry and we worked through those problems. Finally, I provided a mixed review for him to identify the correct function to solve. "
