"We reviewed the properties of exponents and logarithms for the student's test. She is grasping the concept well and should do well on the test. "

"The student and I covered taking the derivative of an implicit function, finding horizontal tangent lines to that function, and finding a point that lies on the function and a tangent line. He did very well. "

"We worked on test review problems which was based on quadratics. We worked on problems involving writing quadratic functions using given points, graphing quadratic functions, factoring, completing the square, vertex form, standard form, etc."

"I clarified the student's one question about the phrasing on a Saturday-school packet, and then we got through a quick review/ refresher of things we'd covered in the fall. I ended by introducing group theory, which I think is a really cool and understandable topic in college math. "

"The concepts we covered were steps to finding the inverse of a function, properties of quadratic functions (vertex, x-intercepts), using the quadratic formula, and real-life applications of quadratic functions (height and distance a football is thrown). The student was struggling the most with terminology; she knows the concepts, but she wasn't sure of them by name (vertex, x,y-intercepts, quadratic formula). Once we reviewed them several times, while solving problems, she got the hang of it. I included a general strategy for ease of use of the quadratic formula. She has to complete the calculation for the final problem we worked on."

"Student 1: We went back to the reading program we have been working on for this session. After a brief review and overview of the reading methodology and of the graphic novel Persepolis, we jumped right back into where we started. For her, the immediate goal is to catch her up on internalizing and apply the reading techniques and strategies we have been utilizing. Student 2: This session focused on annotations. We worked mostly on practicing writing 2-3 after each section of the text read and then determining how we could make them more useful. This type of work was also beneficial because it allowed me to see which of the ways of thinking would best benefit her. "

"We covered the application of 90, 180, 270, and 360 degree angles in relation to time and how to recognize it on a clock. The direction (counterclockwise and clockwise) was also covered. The student had a strong sense of the material after we covered it. She did struggle in reading and writing fractions (1/4, 1/2, 3/4) to read/ write the numerator before the denominator. This will have to be something we work more on in the future. "

"We reviewed exponential rules and slope. We worked on probability today and they both understood very well. There was a little confusion but we cleared it up. I think they are great girls and very smart and intelligent. I look forward to working with them again soon."

"This was a productive session. We went over radioactive decay, and then the student completed her problem set on Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. It required many tables, graphs, calculations, and analysis, all of which was great practice. At first we worked through the problems together until she was able to solve them on her own. "

"The student and I wrote his persuasive speech for English class, which is due this week. We focused on crafting persuasive arguments around several points, incorporating relevant evidence (cited in MLA format), and identifying logical and emotional appeals. "

"We reviewed light wave phenomena, photons, color, polarization, reflection and refraction, EM spectrum, and UV light. The student does not seem to be struggling. She is enthusiastic about the subject matter. She is doing well on quizzes. "
