"The student began by asking for help completing the questions for his Article of the Week assignment. After going over the article together and coaching him towards the answers, we finished defining the new vocabulary list which we began last week. As usual, he was familiar with some of the words already, which helped keep us going at a strong pace. Finally, I questioned him on the new words from last week; he remembered many of them, but forgot a few. This will improve with time, of course."

"The student was prepping for a mid chapter quiz. We reviewed compositions and inverses. We also reviewed how to determine if the inverse is a function by graphing and by using compositions. The student practiced simplifying and solving rational expressions."

"We worked on ACT prep this week; I had the girls do several practice sessions and we went over what they got wrong and why. I arranged for future tutoring, and we went over testing strategies, as well as things they can do to prepare for the test for the next two months."

"Today I explained finding zeroes through synthetic division. I showed the student how to develop a list of possible rational zeroes, and then how to find the zeroes by synthetically dividing by one number for the list. She quickly understood. She is making progress, and if she continues working hard she will do well."

"We scheduled this final session just after the OLSAT. The student said that she thought the test went well, that it was easy. We devoted this section to fun learning on two topics. During the first hour, I taught The student how to work systems of equations via the elimination and substitution methods. Then we worked some word problems that required the use of these algebra skills. During the second hour, we examined the lyrics to two French songs at her vocabulary level. After reviewing the vocabulary and listening to the songs a few times, I explained how that repetition and muscle memory would be an important part of her studies in French. She said that she will continue to study these two songs and their lyrics."

"We talked about what the student found challenging when she took the SAT in November. Based on this, we mainly focused on writing multiple choice and reading sections. We discussed specific grammatical principles (to be expanded on in future sessions) as well as overall test-taking strategies. "

"Today we did more reviewing for the student's exam on Wednesday. We focused on Chapter 6, which relates temperature changes to changes in energy. We then began to look at chapter 7, which covers electron configuration. "
