"I went over a couple of upcoming presentations the student will be giving; one on repeated measures one way ANOVA, and the other on multiple regression. I gave the student suggestions, so she is tweaking the presentations to better wow the class. "

"The student has a test the following day on linear functions. We completed the chapter test problems together. It dealt with graphing piecewise functions, finding their domain and range, using slope intercept form to find equations given slope, y-intercept, two points, parallel equation and a point, or perpendicular equation and a point, using point slope form given two points, creating a scatter plot, finding the line of best fit, and finding residuals from the line of best fit. I then had him retake the test by himself. Prior to the test he needs to read the notes focusing on definition of perpendicular and point-slope form."

"The student was able to follow the variety of solution methods that I presented. He remains curious about learning new topics and techniques."

"Today, we emphasized strictly simplifying algebraic expressions and how to divide/multiply/add/subtract complex fractions. The student had the most difficulty in simplifying algebraic expressions that included polynomials. We covered polynomials during one of the first sessions, so he needs to go back and practice factoring out polynomials as well as work on reducing the complex expressions. The homework that he presented me with seemed quite difficult, but I used them as teaching examples, and we were able to get through all the homework. I am very pleased to record that he received a B on his previous exam, which covered all the statistics concepts we worked on together. His teacher also noted on his exam that he showed vast improvement, so I am very excited to see how far he has come."

"This was our first session. We focused on basic concepts and definitions, covering the terms used in Chapter 1, and then spent time on a quiz. We wanted to be sure we had a good understanding of concepts in both English and math. A good first meeting!"

"The student and I went through his paper on the 1990's. The assignment was to pick a decade and come up with a singular word to describe it then write a paper explaining why they chose that word. The student chose the word "inconsistencies" because of the high ups and downs of the decade. He already had a lot of his paper completed, so we focused on organization and thinking of more creative transitions between paragraphs. He rewrote his intro, and I gave him a couple of pointers so he can write papers more effectively on his own."

"We reviewed the questions from the exam that the student will take tomorrow. We practiced conversation and I helped her with pronunciation. She responded well to conversation and was able to focus and answer the majority of the questions correctly. "

"The student and I created an introduction for his final film review. We now have only his final paper remaining to go over. He is an excellent student. At this point receiving only coaching from me. He is completing his writing assignments almost completely on his own and uses me as more of a sounding board. "

"We reviewed more standardized test prep worksheets on regular polygon angle-sum theorems, properties of parallelograms, proving that a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, properties of rhombuses, rectangles and squares, conditions for rhombuses, rectangles and squares, trapezoids and kites, and triangles in the coordinate plane. The student answered each question as I did the same and then we compared answers. He did well, with only an occasional need to be corrected. "

"The student and I began on a unit on simplifying radicals and radical expressions. We went over some of his classwork and then did some of the book problems. I think he just needs to practice and he will get a hang of the material. "

"During this session, the student and I were specifically reviewing for his final. The student came prepared with a review packet and we looked at some of the more difficult problems. The student struggled a bit with u-substitution and some of the more difficult problems concerning summations, but overall he seemed prepared for his final. We walked through several of the problems together and he also did many on his own. Before his final I encouraged him to take a break. I also encouraged him to review some more difficult problems that we had done, but overall he seemed very prepared. "
