Recent Tutoring Session Reviews
Today I met with the students. We reviewed our problem solving strategies. The girls are becoming more comfortable with the strategies. We discussed the importance of using strategies for every problem. We tackled a few assessment exam questions. The girls are understanding how to dissect and attack the problem using problem solving skills. This week in school the girls are working on conversions. They drew the "Gallon Man" and answered conversion questions. They caught on very quickly, and were successful in answering the difficult conversion questions.

We went over the student's recent test then moved on to the topic of surface area. He understood the material and answered almost every problem from his homework correctly without my help. I advised him he would benefit from more reading practice. I told him if he reads more, he will more quickly figure out what test questions are asking and what teachers are saying.

We had a very good first session. The student and I went over the math with calculator section of the PSAT. He answered 17 out of 31 questions correctly. One thing I stressed to him was that, even though he's in advanced math classes, as a sophomore taking a test that's created for juniors he will encounter some concepts that he's not yet seen so it's normal for him to be unsure on some of the questions. Other questions will involve concepts that he knows but hasn't seen since perhaps middle school, so their use on a question may not be readily apparent. We will be reviewing these concepts in context of problems and also forging ahead to some concepts he hasn't yet learned in math class. Today we reviewed several statistics questions on frequency distribution, range, median without precise values, and histograms. Another important concept we looked at was recognizing and solving a quadratic equation in a word problem using the quadratic formula. He did quite well with all of the questions that dealt with linear applications such as creating a linear function form a word problem or analyzing what the intercept and slope of a linear function mean in context of a word problem.
I told him that in the future I would like him to write all of his work on the test itself and not on a separate sheet of paper because it makes it easier for both of us to see what he did to solve a problem. Also, students must write all their work on the actual test and are not allowed scrap paper, so he's that much closer to actual test taking conditions if he does the same.
I gave him the other math section of the practice PSAT to do for our next session.

We went over a few practice problems involving Law of Sines and Cosines, along with a few word problems. The one suggestion I made to the student was to slow down and write every step out. This will aid him in the future in case he is working with problems he has difficulty with he can follow along his notes carefully. Also, I told him and his parents that the organization needs some work. He has to date notes, hole punch handouts, use a pencil, and write out clear legible notes. This will be a huge step in his success.

Today we discussed the relationship between reading and writing, in particular the way reading provides both inspiration by supplying words or a thought that resonates and by suggesting a vehicle in which thought can be expressed. The student read a piece she had written during the week and we discussed its meaning and some aspects of its style. We went on to talk through the best way for her to establish a writing routine that is realistic and challenging. I set homework based on the idea of writing about the story in what she reads, that is, asking why, how and when?

In this session, we went over the student's homework number 45. He was able to understand the concepts but needs to show his work. We went over each problem together step by step to avoid math errors, which really helped him avoid mistakes. On Monday, we will do more practice to really cement these concepts.
