"I helped the student study for her unit test on algebraic equations and inequalities. She understands the concepts and seemed ready for her test. "

"The student spent most of the session completing her Calc BC homework, so as not to fall behind on her new assignments. We spent the last ten minutes talking about the plan for our upcoming sessions and what I need her to complete for Tuesday and Sunday."

"Today we continued to discuss and practice IOPs in questions or negative statements with two verbs. The exercise we practiced had her write two versions of a sentence where the IOP was either before the verbs or after. Her ability to quickly identify the proper IOP improved. She is still struggling with understanding some of the translations for subject pronouns so we will continue to practice it. For next time I told her to memorize all of the subject pronouns and be able to explain the exercise we did today. "

"The concepts we covered this session include transformations from a parabola with a vertex of (0,0). We went over the values in equations a, h, and k. We also went over how to describe the transformations and graph them. The student had an assignment on transformations that we worked on together. She seemed to have a good understanding on the concept after a couple problems but there are still some important algebra skills she has not been completely comfortable with thus far. She is getting there though! We also did drills on those concepts and others that she is comfortable with. I see a lot of understanding and improvement! "

"The student and I started out by focusing on graphing lines from linear equations using tables and solving for x, and worked on some practice problems on the topic. Then, we graphed lines using the y=mx+b formula, learning the y-intercept and slope from the formula, and completed some practice problems. We closed the session by working on some practice problems for his high school entrance exam. He is very smart and engaged, and it's been a pleasure working with him "

"We continued our work on optimization problems. The student is showing considerable growth when it comes to working with algebraic optimization problems. Our time together focused primarily on helping improve her confidence. "

"The student and I worked on 2 more AP Calculus review questions. Both of them were on differential equations. I gave him my thoughts on how to approach the problems and went into detail on the first problem. I also explained the methodology and the overall picture of what Calculus is used for and when to apply the tools that he has learned throughout this class. I also told him that he needs to complete a bunch of differential equations with the solutions close by so that he understands how to work these problems. He seemed to understand more about how to solve these problems but needs to practice these types of problems more to gain confidence and to grow comfortable with them. "

"Today, the student and I continued chapter 2 of his discrete math book discussing probability and elections. He seemed confident in the material as it was presented. We worked through examples highlighting different methods for counting weight and power in a sample. We worked through problems at the end of the book for practice. He felt confident and prepared for his upcoming test."

"We learned about the difference between sequences and series. Then we learned about geometric series, specifically under what conditions they converge and diverge. We also learned about telescoping sums to solve general series problems, and determined whether they converged or diverged by taking the limit. Lastly, we reviewed using calculus for continuous probability distributions. I think it was very successful, and it took us a bit of work, but it definitely made more sense after we covered it in the session. "

"During our session today, I decided to take a look ahead at some exponential functions. We worked on some word problems, solving for different components based on prompts. These sorts of problems used some logarithm rules. I used this as a way to discretely check up on the work we've done over the past few weeks. "

"We spent the entirely of today's session working through problems involving angular momentum, moment of inertia, and torque. The student now has a much stronger handle on these equations, setting up problems, and considering the problems conceptually. We have now covered every topic included in the AP Physics exam. During the next session, we will work through the AP Physics comprehensive review provided by the student's teacher and will review all of the equations which he needs to remember. "
