"We went over chapter 15 and 16 in preparation for her final exam. She can use her notes in the exam which will help her out immensely."

"We covered exercises from the text book on areas between intersecting functions. Some of these were tricky but I think the student has the process down on how to set up the integral. That is, top function minus bottom function, how to determine the limits of integration, when to divide the integral up (when functions cross), and when to use symmetry for simpler integral functions and error reduction in manual equations. We then touched on writing area functions for cross sections of solids given the solids outer profile function. We will cover more of this tomorrow and move onto to calculation of actual volumes of revolution."

"Today's session went very well. We reviewed the student's latest test and paid special attention to problem 14 and 15. These problems were very complex, and we identified strategies on how to approach these types of problems in the future. Problem 14 dealt with identifying a triangle in the unit circle and applying rotational transformations to said triangle and then evaluating the transformed triangle with another trigonometric function. Problem 15 dealt with composite inverse trigonometric functions and how to deal with the domains of inverse trigonometric functions. The student had a great attitude for the session. I want her to try to practice problems like these, as the method to solve them is a little complex and requires practice to master."

"The student and I covered topics on thermodynamics. Specifically, we talked about Gibbs Free energy, enthalpy, and entropy. We also discussed how to correlate free energy with the electrometer potential and how to predict whether redox reactions are spontaneous. "

"At the student's request, I reviewed some homework questions concerning proofs and tangent segments. We also completed a sample SAT math section. She was appreciative when I gave her some ways to recall some basic math concepts. She agreed to work on more sample questions. The plan is to focus attention on the questions that she finds difficult. "

"We covered applications of integrals, which included disk/washer methods, shell method, and how to find volumes using cross sections. Overall, the student did very well, and once we worked through a couple of problems in a specific topic, he seemed to understand any of the mistakes he might have been making. The session was mostly used for reviewing concepts needed for his exam tomorrow, and it seemed like by the end of the session, he had a pretty good grasp of the material."

"During our session today, I had the student review the major ideas and topics of sections 1-2 of chapter 15 in her textbook. These are the sections that she said she was just quizzed on, and she felt like she did really well on the quiz. After doing even more reviewing with her, I was extremely impressed with her knowledge and recall. I would say this is one of the topics she knows best. After we finished reviewing, we moved onto section 3, which she will be starting after spring break. I had her read the first paragraph of section 3 and then we analyzed an important diagram together that outlined many of the topics to be covered. She picked it up pretty quickly, and I am confident that she will do well on section 3 as well. Overall, it was a wonderful session. She was much more focused and interactive than usual, which I think is probably because she feels more confident about the subject matter. I am very pleased with her progress in this area. "

"The student is still covering graphing in class. Although he knows the solution process, when the problems are altered slightly he has trouble because he doesn't know why the process works. Thus, we spent some time talking about the concepts behind these types of problems, as well as looking at assessment test style questions."
