Session Summaries by Tutors

During this session we worked through problems the student was unsure about on her AP Calculus final review packet. She seems to have a good understanding of the concepts we went over, but just needed a review on a few things. She is a bright student, it was truly a pleasure working with her and I wish her the best in all her future endeavors!

The student wanted a little further guidance with some pre-calculus concepts, specifically limits and piecewise functions. Her instructor indicated to her that she should be able to identify limits of functions without using a graph, so we practiced using a table of values instead. We also talked about the difference between limits approaching from the left and the right. Some suggestions for guidance moving forward were given. I suggested that the student work on vocabulary and definitions to gain confidence in the material. Overall, I think our session went very well!

The student and I reviewed a few concepts from the study guide she had, and then did a previous review of the product and quotient rule.

I taught the student how to convert fractions to decimals and decimals to percents. We practiced synonyms and adjectives, finding the word with the closest meaning to the word given. Then, we did reading comprehension.

Yesterday was my first session with this student. We spent time assessing what his strengths and weaknesses are based on a couple of writing samples he was able to provide. He shared that he struggles with switching tenses and flow/ structure while writing. After editing his writing samples, we moved on to a writing exercise. The exercise confirmed that he is a competent writer when he is able to focus. In order to reach his goals, we have decided to work on making his writing concise and more professional. Moving forward, we will utilize exercises that will allow him to practice using fewer, but more powerful words to get his ideas across. He was very receptive to instruction and was a pleasure to work with. He will continue to practice his writing abilities every day at work in addition to our sessions.

The student and I worked on multiplication factors and made a grid for reference and practice. We also previewed reading comprehension strategies.
