"Feeling confident about the work with ratios her class had struggled through in the previous week, the student thought herself to continue onto working with ratios as they relate to similar triangles. Together, we went over various postulates and theorems for proving triangles similar (SSS, AA, etc.), following each with some problems from her textbook to give her some practice with applying these theorems on her own. Working through the theorems step by step seemed to help her focus on solving complex figures in the same way, which was nice. Towards the end, she did have some difficulty determining which pairs of sides in similar triangles were corresponding, so I left her with some strategies about how to rotate and flip figures until you have them at a workable angle."

"We covered the chapter on sampling distribution and reviewed problems on sampling distributions of the population mean."

"The student has a test this week covering all the material so far, so we reviewed some and studied a new section on parabolas that will also be on the test. He got an A on his last quiz and has little difficulty with the material after getting a bit of practice."

"The student is a great student and was very focused during our session. We went over his exam prep worksheet for his AP Algebra class and covered concepts he was struggling with. :He caught on very quickly and was very responsive to my instructions. We planned on meeting the following week."

"We approached writing a paper that the student had due for her psychology class. She was instructed to write a persuasive paper that pulled in various quotes, case studies, and theories from different psychologists. Her premise was that dissociation is a coping mechanism, not a flaw, and that it's been beneficial to human evolution and survival as a species. Her attitude was good. I'm hoping she got enough from our session to understand what she needs to focus on, what to include and exclude, and how to approach building arguments and synthesizing points of view. I left her with several pages of notes from our talk, having written down a lot of her summarization of what she was trying to say, where it was aligned with the premise. Hopefully this will jump start her efforts to complete this. It was a pleasure to work with her, and I hope to do so again in the future! "

"We worked on syllables, beginning and ending sounds, blending into words, sight words, reading, handwriting, and counting by tens."

"The student and I learned about converting between radians and degrees; converting from minutes and seconds to degrees; analyzing the unit circle and the special positions where sine and cosine values could be estimated without a calculator; determining trigonometric functions of a special angle in degrees or radians by positioning the angle on the unit circle and identifying the reference angle; calculating the remaining trigonometric functions of an angle knowing the value of one function and the quadrant the angle belongs to; and graphing sine and cosine functions by analyzing the amplitude, the period, any vertical/horizontal shift/compression/stretching/reflection. The student was able to position the angles on the unit circle and determine their trigonometric function values. She also did well on graphing and predicting the transformation. We will work on trigonometric identities in the next session."

"Today was my first session with this student, and I will say I'm impressed. She has her times table down fairly well, and she works at a pretty good speed. My only note is that she works too fast, so some simple mistakes come up along the way. However, I point them out and she corrects them immediately. We began doing the review for her upcoming test, and she has most of the information down! At the end of the session, I just told her to study her divisibility rules and to make sure she remember one other rule when it comes to her work."

"We went over a final exam in preparation for the student's test. We went over derivatives, optimization, related rates, and the trapezoid rule. The student was more comfortable with the procedures for problems. He had minimal errors with calculations."

"The student and I covered percentage and fraction conversions. She did well with the placement of corresponding components of proportions in the correct order. Her attitude was positive. I included multiple methods for solving the same questions. "

"We finished a review of all the homework. The student made great progress during this session because she totally understands the new chapter now. She is really smart: every time I show her one example, she can complete the similar one by herself! "
