"We covered several sections of his homework. The student was able to solve most of the problems due to the tutoring work we did over the summer. "

"The student learned how to greet others in formal and informal situations, and ask someone's name. They also learned how to ask how someone is doing and say goodbye. Students practiced the conversation via role playing, and then participated in some yes or no questioning with the tutor so help acquire structures. "

"We worked on long and short vowels in English and reviewed the homework that she had done, categorizing them. "

"The student and I met for the second session and covered Leccion Numero Uno from the text we are using after he worked through the lesson as homework. We discussed any questions he had regarding the lesson and addressed accents and pronunciation. We also covered ER/IR verb conjugation in the present tense, personal pronouns, memorization/ study strategies, note taking and organizing vocabulary. We reviewed new vocabulary and cognates/ false cognates as well as common patterns with cognates. He did great with vocabulary and pronunciation. He also picked up present tense conjugation very quickly and realized he has some recollection of the subjunctive tense and future tense conjugations as well. He is self correcting often and is asking the right questions such as "Why did you use para then instead of por?" or "When do I use ser vs estar?" So we will begin diving into these grammar lessons soon!"

"We covered circular motion, centripetal forces, and the basic concept of work. The student also wanted to review a couple of questions that she had missed on a previous quiz. She asked about the derivation for centripetal acceleration in terms of velocity and radius, and I told her that I would write it out and email it to her. She will let me know if she has questions."

"The student and I met again for the first time in a while. We worked on some reading, but she was reading from a book she picked out this time and not just one of her school books. This book was more challenging so we took turns reading. She is very observant when she reads and notices lots of details about the story through the pictures. She did a very nice job today and it was great getting to see her again!"

"Today we reviewed prefixes and suffixes of common words, did a few passages for reading comprehension, and then practiced doing various math problems. The student has not made as much progress on vocabulary as I would like but is in a better place than she was previously to take the test. I have asked her to prepare a list of topics she would like to review prior to next session."

"The student did a practice verbal and reading section. We worked on vocab., specifically on SSAT words and prefixes. I sent her flashcards and a comprehensive list of words. We also did reading comprehension and discussed the types of questions she may encounter. I suggest that she focus her energy on vocabulary memorization and strategies for figuring out the definition for new words. Overall, she is a patient, eager student! I enjoyed working with her."

"Student 1 and I worked on vocabulary and reading comprehension today. His reading comprehension was definitely an improvement, as he says he's been working on the flashcards. We're working consistently towards answer strategies and ways of looking at reading passages. Again, the main thing to start building now is vocabulary. Student 2 is also doing well and is starting to understand algebraic concepts. We discussed coordinates and worked on triangle geometry and probability. She's also doing well, and I see definite improvement."

"Today, we started with energy from last time, and I asked the student if she had any problems with her exam. She brought up 2 questions, which we went over. Then, I began giving her a head's up on the next section that she would be studying this week, rotation. First we went over the equations of rotational motion, deriving them from the original equations of motion. Next, we covered rotational inertia, then torque and the principles of torque. And finally, we looked at the angular momentum. She caught on with the concepts very well, and didn't have any questions about the material that we went over. So, next time on Thursday we will work on problems for this section."

"The student has learned 120+ vocabulary words/ roots/ affixes in preparation for the test on Saturday! Her word clues and pictures help her to remember them well and she loves to apply them in her everyday conversation. She's noticing them as she hears them in "real life" as well. We brushed up on a few math skills and did one more fly-by of analogy bridge statements and she's ready to go!"
