"We discussed problems involving applications of the derivative today, specifically applications of optimization. We worked several problems varying in difficulty, including a long one involving the trig functions. Although he started out a bit confused, the student has a much better idea of how to solve these problems, from the initial set up, to the calculus and algebra involved."

"The student and I continued to work on increasing the speed of his reading. His last score was a 27. We also worked on his math and science."

"At the beginning of the session, we reviewed problems from last time involving simplifying square roots. I took a look at the problems that the student had come up with and talked her through what was correct and what needed a little more work. In doing so, we briefly reviewed the difference between rational and irrational numbers. We continued to cover algebra concepts. We discussed the Least Common Multiples (LCM) and Greatest Common Factors (GCF). I also highlighted the similarities between LCM and least common denominator. We talked about what each of these terms meant and what it meant to find these terms for a set of two numbers. We worked through an example problem for each concept, LCM and GCF. We discussed starting points and strategies for recognizing what was not LCM/GCF and also how to find these results. In doing so, we reviewed the difference between multiples and factors, and we also had the opportunity to review how to multiply and divide variables with exponents. I left her with a sample problem to construct LCM and GCF questions from as well as another sample problem to practice dividing variables with exponents. "

"We covered water, pH and organic molecules. Her strength was the acid and base portion. I also gave her tips on how to study the materials and outlined the important points to remember in chapters 4 and 5."

"In our second session, I tried to get a better sense of the student's particular strengths and weaknesses as a Latin student, so that I could tailor my tutoring style to his particular needs. He has an admirably strong grasp of the Latin paradigms, but is still having trouble putting all the pieces together and connecting a word's form to its semantic and syntactic role. We began our session this week with some review of noun case and usage, with an emphasis on how to connect the Latin forms with their meaning and usage. For practice, we worked through some modified composition exercises. Then we moved on to some translation practice, in preparation for his translation quiz on Friday. I tried to emphasize the importance of breaking down a Latin sentence into its component parts in order to translate it. I also showed him some tricks for keeping track of all the parts of the sentence that I picked up when I was a high school student. "

"We covered conversational English; grammar; nouns; verb tenses; subj verb agreement; and helping, linking, action vbs. I also left her extra practice. Her speaking is becoming more fluent."

"The student did well today. We were able to go over some of the basic algebra skills that confused him. He made progress with solving one step equations and understands when to add, subtract, or divide to answer them."

"Today's class was a very comprehensive class about the relationship between moles, atoms, and mass. We started from the beginning and worked our way through. First it was basically converting between mass and moles of a single compound (using atomic weight), but slowly we transitioned to more complex stoichiometric problems. We progressively moved to mole ratios and how to convert information about compounds in an equation using stoichiometry. We ended our class with an introduction to problems about limiting reagents."

"Today, the student and I reviewed material for her upcoming final. We started by working through several problems involving solving for x with coefficients of fractions. We then worked on mixed number and fraction arithmetic. We also worked through simplifying several expressions with exponents. We also reviewed how to read contour maps, what a contour line is, what the scale of a map represents, and how to find total elevation change. "

"Concepts Covered: Reading fluency, Reading decoding, and Reading comprehension (vocabulary development). Reading fluency practiced via the repeated reading of a grade level reading passage. The reading topic was prairie dogs. Vocabulary was taken from this passage and used later in the session. Reading decoding was practiced with a focus on the "r" blend /pr/ through a word reading task. The student has demonstrated some difficulty with blends in previous sessions. To address this difficulty, blends are integrated through various practice tasks in our tutorial sessions. Reading comprehension was addressed through a vocabulary practice task. The LINCS vocabulary strategy was implemented during this task."

"We went over derivatives in depth and began to start doing problems regarding the product rule for derivatives. In addition, we went over the student's first exam. He initially had trouble deriving some of the square root functions, but by the end he had learned it well."

"The student is at the end of her chapter on rational functions. We worked through her whole chapter study sheet which included long division, simplifying rational expressions, and solving rational equations. She retained the concepts from previous lessons and needed the least amount of assistance thus far in her lessons. I reminded her once on how to factor, and she factored successfully the rest of the lesson, which was a major win. She had difficulty adding rational functions with different denominators, but worked through her trouble. She had a fantastic attitude about working on math and seems to be enjoying lessons more than she had previously shown. She seemed very comfortable by the end of the lesson. She was able to solve equations as well as simplify them - even able to complete the most difficult problems with minimal prompting."
