Recent Tutoring Session Reviews

"This session went well. The student had done a lot of advanced prep on her own, which was good to see. We discussed her science reading to begin with and she had done well but I tried to use another general study to help her assess critical thinking/ reasoning when it comes to studies and analyses. She can have a harder time picking up overall context on the science questions so I try to go over the basic outline of these kinds of tests/ studies. The English went quite well and I was pleased to see she really had focused on some of that; the more she practices the better she'll get. She has a harder time with idiomatic expressions but seems genuinely eager to learn and is excited about the content as we addressed it. I gave her homework of timed tests to help her get ready for her October exam."

"We started with going over solving systems of equations with substitution. She did very well on this and was able to complete it all on her own very easily after I showed her the process with the first question. We then moved onto linear programming, which she will be learning this week in class. I showed her how to complete the first two problems and the process for finding the minimum and maximum values. We worked the second problem together when she had some problems graphing the constraints, but once I showed her and answered her questions, she was able to finish on her own and do the last few perfectly all on her own."

"The student and I worked with the hard-copy textbook for this course, the paperback workbook, and the course portal online. He made it clear that he will need particular assistance with the listening comprehension exercises at the end of each Unit. We are currently working on Unit 4, covering items one sees and learns in trains and at train stations. I expect him to prepare the written portions of the unit assignments as text files before each tutoring session. I will then be able to review the written assignments with him so that he can then post his answers on the course portal. This strategy will also give us time to focus on the listening portion at the end of each Unit."

"The student and I worked on ACT Science and Writing today. We talked about the different types of questions on the Science section and went through a few passages of each type. We also talked about strategies and timing. For the Writing section, we went through a couple of practice prompts and wrote essay outlines to make sure she is very comfortable with this method by test day. "

"The student worked on irregular verbs and their stem changes. He's been nervous about knowing which verb to use on his weekly tests. So he practiced using the verbs in sentence like he has on his test. He felt more confident by the end of the session."

"We had a great session on Monday. The student had an excellent attitude, and he did very well re-reading the books from last Thursday. He did well on his spelling words too. His mastery of long 'e' sounds is getting stronger and stronger. We also returned to his workbooks and are using targeted pages to help review the short vowel sounds."

"Again, we focused on timing and getting problems correct within a reasonable amount of time. The student struggled a bit on algebra and geometry problems, but I told him a few tricks and tips to solve those, including looking at the front of each section for formulas. He is still around a 500, but would ideally get around a 540 or even 560. I think it may be better to focus on reading, as there is a lower score cutoff for that section. He was very enthusiastic and energetic throughout the session as always. We have one more session planned before the test."

"We reviewed concepts that would be on the student's midterm tomorrow - specifically parabolic motion (working with motion in multiple axes) and kinematics (constant acceleration and constant velocity problems). We briefly covered work and energy throughout the session, but she seemed very comfortable that part of the material. We also covered Kepler's laws and being careful to use the correct units when using the p^2 = a^3/M form of the equation. Finally, we talked about circular motion and banking problems. Throughout the session I encouraged her to solve problems using variables, instead of plugging in numbers right away, because it allows you to see how the end result is changed by changing different starting variables."

"The student and I went over some of her math. We did some problems in differentiating supplementary and complementary angles. We also did some problems in finding the degree of an angle using algebra. She did very well in identifying the right kind of angle, but she struggled at first on finding the degree of the angle. I worked with her and showed her how to set up the problem to solve it. She showed some improvement and was even able to do problems independently. At the end, she was seemed to have a solid understanding of the material and even double checked her work. "

"Today the student and I worked on an assignment to design 35 questions for his class. This assignment helped him practice commands, especially where accents go when tacking on pronouns to commands. We had some time left after completing this assignment to review conjugations for verbs in the preterite with particular focus on irregular verbs."

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

"The student had an assignment about conservative forces and potential energy functions. I explained the basics, that the force associated with the potential energy function is the negative of the position derivative of the function. Her calculus is good, and we had no problem figuring out the solutions."
