"We did review, spending most of the time on domain and range and function problems. Her attitude has been good!"

"This session, I helped the student with some of his Geometry homework and to prepare for an upcoming quiz. We reviewed SOHCAHTOA and how to use it when given angles. We then went over new problems to then find the angles when given the lengths."

"The student has an exam tomorrow she wanted to review for. The topics covered are: factoring complete square trinomials, solving equations using the quadratic formula, and graphing quadratic functions."

"The student and I completed a math preparatory packet during this session. We went over all 42 questions together. He had a great attitude, and was willing to improve and brush up on his math skills. On questions involving fractions, he did pretty well. A lot of the more complicated word problems, he needed an extra push. I think after another session of math review together will prepare him for his test next week. "

"This was our first session together and it went really well. He told me his test scores and he wanted to focus on SAT critical reading. He seemed to do really well with his humanities passages. We will focus on other passages next session as well as move on to the math section."

"We covered the math portion of the PSAT today. We spent a lot of time focusing on factoring, exponents, and interest. In particular, I think the student needs to memorize the compounding interest formula, so I think a little extra practice on this concept would be helpful. Overall, I think she is in pretty good shape and if she takes the diagnostic test I sent her, I think she will be ready to perform well when she takes the PSAT."

"We covered geometric sequences today. The struggle is to understand how to get the formula a_n=a_1*r^(n-1). But by the end, the student got it. There's really nothing scary about geometric sequences because there are only two things: a term and a ratio."

"We reviewed for the student's test for Thursday on chapter 5. I had assigned her about 25 problems to do as an extra practice for us to review. As I looked over the worksheet, I noticed she had minimal errors. She had a huge improvement from labeling as well, which I was very proud to see. I created more problems for her to complete within the hour, and she only got a few problems wrong. I am so proud of her improvement over the last couple of weeks. I really see a change in her attitude and development, and I believe she has a great grasp on the material. Our tutor-client relationship has truly blossomed, and I am pleased with the results. "

"The student and I worked on a number of trigonometry problems, including the signs of various trig function per quadrants as well as range and domain. We also worked through a few right angle trig problems as well."

"The student was able to finish the packet her teacher had assigned for homework. There were some areas we had to review, for example, percentages. I emphasized the difference between the amount of discount or tax on something and the total someone pays. After explaining briefly, she was able to do them, and I think she did well in the remaining problems. I feel like she did especially well in the multiple choice problems, especially with test taking skills like process of elimination. "

"The student read from the Diary of a Wimpy Kid, a new book that he checked out from the library. He had to write the beginning, middle, and end of the portion we read using complete sentences. He also completed a grammar worksheet that required him to find the nouns and verbs in the sentences. He had to determine if the verbs were past, present, or future tense. In math, he completed a multi-step worksheet of word problems. We worked on breaking each problem down to baby steps and using diagrams, numbers, and notes to answer the questions. He was able to write word equations to match the words in the problem and then solve the problems. Each problem had multiple steps, so he had to determine what math function (addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division) he needed to use to answer the problem."
