"He remains curious and open during our sessions. He's also diligent about completing the work and raising questions when he has them. He stated that English isn't his favorite, however, I'm noticing that he's quite good at it and has a sharp, analytical mind. "

"Yesterday the student and I started with doing a review of how combinations differ from permutations, and how the two are mathematically related. We then went over the 3 types of permutations/combinations which we had learned last week. We then looked at the final of four scenarios- combinations with repetition. We then spent the rest of the session doing 10-11 practice problems which reviewed all of these types of permutations and combinations. The student did well with these and seemed to really start getting the hang of how to recognize each type of combination and permutation. We'll review this stuff a bit more on Wednesday before moving on to sequences and series."

"We went over surface area and volume. The student had no difficulty understanding the objectives of the material. He did forget some basics required to calculate said concepts (i.e. area of a triangle, trapezoid, circle). I reminded him of the simple area formulas then gave him some tips when it came to surface area of certain objects. I went over a couple of examples dealing with different prisms. After showing him the examples, I had the student try a set of problems on his own. Save for a few errors in computing/simplifying expressions the student was able to maneuver through the problems efficiently. We then moved to volume which turned out to be easier for him. He worked through those problems with little to no assistance from me. "

"We reviewed the student's homework on continuity and increasing/ decreasing/ constant intervals of functions. Since we had gone over it the last session and he had now been taught it in school, the student went through the questions very quickly and understood the material. We then proceeded to preview the next three sections of his textbook. The material was on the many transformations of functions (vertical/ horizontal shifts, reflections, stretching/ shrinking, symmetry, etc.). We did a couple of questions from each section to see if he understood what I had explained."

"We started by talking about the concepts that the student's teacher is covering in class and in what areas she's having difficulty. She expressed that she's struggling with the concept of converting measurement units. So from her textbook we decided to review a previous lesson. We worked together on the guided practice section re-teaching the steps and skills of the examples, reinforcing the benchmarks of converting measurements. Then, I had her work on the independent practice section by herself. I reviewed the steps and skills in completing word problems. She was able to complete the section on her own."

"Today's session was very good. We wrote a story in French and reinforced some of the topics we had learned in the past. We also went over some more vocabulary and played games based on the new topics. "

"The student and I completed our review for his final exam. We went over all of the key topics that would be covered, as well as any last minute questions he may have. "

"Today we solved problems from the previous chapter and started the chapter on multiple equations with multiple variables. We solved several systems with four equations and four variables. The strategy for these is to figure out which one the base equation is (a complicated one), and solve the simpler equations first and then plug in the solutions into the base equation. Another strategy was to look at the system of two equations with two unknowns, and substitute the product of two variables from the second equation into the first, which was simpler than the standard procedure. The student is grasping the new concepts quickly and easily."

"The student is doing well in her class, and has a solid understanding of the material. Last session we covered stoichiometry, mass percent, limiting reagents and reaction types. We also reviewed balancing equations in the process. In addition, I provided extra practice problems in these areas."

"The student and I went over is math final packet. There are 76 problems total, and we managed to go through 34 problems. I am meeting with him again Monday, so we will finish the remaining problems that he doesn't finish on his own. Many concepts on the packet he understood very well. I was there to help double check his work and explain the problems more in depth. He had some confusion with graphing tangent functions, but we were able to clearly understand together how to do it using the book. By meeting with him one more time before the final as well as giving him a chance to work out the problems alone, he will have the math skills he needs to pass his final with a high score."

"At the library, we did mostly physics where the student had a homework assignment on lens and drawing ray diagrams. I had to show her some techniques on how to perform calculations in areas such as finding the focal length of a lens and finding the image distance formed by a lens. I had to point out some key concepts that she'll have to remember such as when an image is real or virtual. I think I gave her enough knowledge in this area so that she'll finish the rest of the physics homework on her own. After doing physics, we did a bit of pre-calculus that involved sequences ranging from arithmetic sequences to geometric sequences. I showed her some techniques on how to do problems on sequences. "

"This was our last session as the student has her final on Friday. However it will only be on this current chapter covering the counting principle, permutations, and combinations. She had a worksheet to complete on these topics, but since she had not had math class this week due to state testing, it had not been introduced to her in school. We worked through the problems and I explained the difference between the three concepts. She did great. It has been a pleasure working with her and I wish her the best in her senior year and in choosing a college! It's an exciting time. She is a wonderful student!"
