Recent Tutoring Session Reviews

"The student practiced solving solution set by using a graph and by using algebra. He was provided modeling and guiding questions during his homework which was proved by his math teacher. He found it hard to understand the homework and was unable to complete any question independently. He was asked to review the work that was completed and to follow up with questions about the material in the future."

"We worked on graphing linear inequalities and systems of linear inequalities. This was not too much different than graphing equations and systems of equations so the student seemed to pick it up pretty quick. We'll review Chapter 7 next time then, if he has no more questions, move on to exponents in Chapter 8. "

"I assisted the student with his algebra homework, which consisted of describing the volumes of cubes, expressing geometric concepts in algebraic terms, and analyzing charts and graphs. I also reviewed with him the basics of graphing including plotting points and graphing lines. He showed some improvement in his understanding of plotting points and graphing lines."

"Today our session was about surface area. I taught the student about the net drawing of a 3D shape. I had him calculate the surface area of a rectangular prism, triangular prism, and square pyramid. He then cut out the net drawing of those shapes and used tape to fold the paper and create the 3D shape. We also did some challenge problems where he had to do things like calculate if he had enough wrapping paper to wrap a gift of certain dimensions. For homework, I gave him practice with calculating the surface area of square pyramids and rectangular prisms. "

"We covered different types of discontinuities, as review for a test, and then I also introduced him to derivatives, and how to use them in physics class. "

"I started the session asking the student if he had any questions from the practice PSAT he had taken since our last session. He said that he had done well and that he understood the explanations for each incorrect answer, so we did not discuss anything specific from the practice PSAT. Instead, we spent the duration of the session working through a sample writing section question-by-question. He got most of the questions right and was able to justify his answers. When specific issues came up, we addressed them in detail. These included use of introductory phrases and correct use of a subject immediately following the comma, the distinction between who and whom, and appropriate pronoun and adverb usage. We will plan on continuing with the writing sections tomorrow morning."

"We covered Algebra 1 and Algebra 2 material, specifically solving for single and multivariable equations, exponents, order of operations, and the effects of an absolute value. The student is smart, but needs a review since he is a bit rusty. He was very positive and excited to prep for the test. We do recognize that he will need repetition. Although repetition is needed, I did recommend that he should take the night off since we covered a lot of material that he hasn't seen in a long time. "

"We did 3 graphing problems of rational and trig functions. For each one we found the intercepts, extrema, inflection points, asymptotes (horizontal, vertical, and slant), and sketched a graph for each. We used the first and second derivative tests. The student is doing well. She's better understanding the concepts. Trig is tougher for her and she needs to memorize trig identities. "

"Today, the student and I revisited the extrema of a function over a given interval. She and I had reviewed this topic last week and had done a little bit of work with it the week before. By now, she had a very firm grasp on what to do. She had 11 homework problems we went through, and then we did some practical applications of the theory. Like her homework, she flew through these problems. She and I closed this session by discussing a change in the tutoring schedule for finals week."

"The student and I began our first session together with a brief "about me" activity to get to know each other better. We then spent the remainder of our time working through fractions and reviewing parts of the test he had gotten back. "

"Tonight's session covered stoichiometry and introduced the concept of mole ratios for mole-mole conversions. We worked example problems involving g-mole, mole-grams, mole-mole, grams-grams, and also an example with mole-volume for a gas at STP. I suggested that the student begin to prepare for his final exam by examining sample chemical equations, categorizing the type of reaction, naming each compound, balancing if needed, and determining mole ratios."
