"The student and I started by reviewing his math homework. He did well with the graphing and using equations. The remainder of the time we worked on Spanish. I helped him with the basics, and we did a number of different exercises from his Spanish textbook. "

"Tonight we did practice problems with exponents, factoring, functions, and simplifying expressions. The student got a lot more comfortable with exponents, of which she was unsure when we started. She clearly demonstrated comprehension of the topics and strategies for solving problems. Now it's time to practice so it gets a little faster! I made a big packet of practice problems based on her materials for class and review packet for the final exam. We'll continue working through it as we meet/between our meetings she can practice. "

"We started unit 2 trigonometry. We reviewed the student's homework, which covered the six trig functions, coterminal angles, and rotations. She is very elated that she is understanding the material thus far. Next week, we will continue to work from the syllabus and review exponentials and logarithms."

"In this session we went over problems supplied by the student's parents. This problems dealt with solving equations. The student had some difficulty at first with the vertical method. But towards the end of the session she was able to solve the problems with less difficulty. We went over doing operations with negative numbers during this review. This was a good session."

"The student and I worked through his review for his test tomorrow. The topic was solving trigonometric equations using trig identities, factoring, quadratic equations, etc. He was able to solve most of the problems with little to no help from me. However, I did clarify a few confusions that he had about some of the problems. He seemed confident and well prepared for the test towards the end of the session. I expect him to excel on this test."

"Today, we previewed material the student would cover when she returned to school after the break. We covered modeling functions, optimization, linearization, Newton's method, and differentials. She picked up on the material very quickly!"

"I worked with the student on factoring polynomials. This included the concepts of factoring to the prime numbers, greatest common factor, and also use of the distributive property. With practice, she was able to factor and find the GCF for a given algebraic phrase. We also reviewed how to factor variables and exponents. She did well and was able to complete her assignment this evening. "

"I believe the student is progressing nicely in his Chinese class. He has been exposed to extensive vocabulary as he's finding them in his readings. He does, however, rush to get the readings done rather than getting the intonation correctly. I see the same problem in his math works. I've asked him to not neglect his math and communicate with me on what he needs to work on. Thus I can help most effectively to bring him up and above the standard in his math class. "

"The student and I spent the tutoring session beginning to create a study guide about evolution. His biology teacher informed the class that they will be having a quiz on Friday concerning the topic of evolution. The majority of the information for the study guide is found in chapter 10 of his biology textbook, therefore we used his textbook as a resource. He was beginning to grasp the concepts but did not have a firm grasp on them by the end of the session, so we will review the information again, and in more depth, when we meet again next Tuesday. "

"Today we covered polar graphs. We learned the different ways to write the coordinates in a polar graph. We can add 2 pi to the angle or we can add pi and multiply the radius by -1. We also learned how to convert polar equations to rectangular equations and vice versa. The radius squared is equal to the sum of x squared and y squared. We also reviewed the angles on the unit circle. The student was eager to learn the material and understood most of the concepts. "

"We began reviewing for the student's final exams by going over review problems from three chapters of algebra, and going over problems in physics with work, energy, and power. She needed some reminders with older material, but remembered what to do after a little prodding. "
