"I met the student and his family and we discussed his last exam(s). He clearly knows the material, but sometimes made simple errors (e.g., using division instead of multiplication (and vice versa)) and showed a tendency to doubt his initial instincts. To that end, I suggested that he take his time while trusting his instincts, and I reminded him to always check his work. The student has a notebook he's keeping with different mathematical concepts, so we also covered a few of those that he wanted to discuss. Negative exponents also made an appearance. Towards the end, we discussed mathematical history, the general idea of calculus, and I even got to put in a mention for Pascal's Triangle, the Fibonacci Sequence, and the number Phi."

"The student is understanding his homework better. I assisted with the basic method of a math project using similar shapes. We made ratios of the sides areas and volumes. Upon further elaboration of the relationships between these quantities, the student began to understand what the project was really trying to teach him."

"Yesterday, we went over the student's Math homework, which included graphs and plotting points as well as reviewing fractions and polygons. Afterwards, we did some reading for his Language Arts course. Along with the reading, we began to fill out a worksheet on literary devices, specifically covering metaphors."

"During this session, moles, molecular weight, stoichiometry, balancing equations, and Avogadro's number were reviewed by completing and re-doing selected homework and quizzes."

"The student worked through his pre-algebra homework and got it finished today. He was able to do most of the problems on his own, but struggled when he tried to complete a lot of steps in his head. He and I corrected these issues today by writing out all of his work. The topics we covered today were plugging into algebraic expressions, units, dimensional analysis, and story problems. "

"The student and I worked on two different types of color by sum in the beginning of the session. I brought one of them that had more difficult addition problems than what we have been working on before. I was prepared to help her through the problems, but she did not need it! She worked diligently and only made two minor mistakes. I am so proud of the progress that I am seeing! Also, instead of coloring the worksheet, she asked to do that later and work in one of her workbooks instead. I am really seeing her love of math grow, and I am so happy for her!"

"This session covered an overview of mathematical logic (truth tables) and conditional statements. We also reviewed homework, which covered coplanar/collinear points, angle measures, and basic algebra."

"Today, the topic was solving incomplete quadratic equations. First, we went over definitions and example problems then we did the exercises. The student hadn't solved equations in awhile so there was some hesitation with what to divide throughout the session, but I just reaffirmed her along the way. Some difficulties with this topic were taking the square root of both sides to solve for x, forgetting to indicate that x has two values with plus-minus sign, and knowing what's the best method for a problem to solve for x. I reminded her and showed her things we worked on previously that are used for solving the problems to help refresh her memory and that seemed to help. Overall, the student did pretty well with the material and just needs a little more practice to get it down cold. She stated that she was feeling good about this chapter and that the math wasn't too hard to solve."

"The student and I spent the session working on practice problems from the math textbook in order to prepare him for his upcoming test. The current topic he is working with is area of shapes, with a focus on composite areas. The student tackles each problem with confidence. "

"Today, we focused on the student's math homework. She had three worksheets that included word problems, counting, addition/subtraction, telling time on both an analog and digital clock, and recognizing shapes. We used funny voices and accents to read the problems, which kept it interesting for her. Her progress with word problems is especially astounding! She no longer skips over them or tries to guess the answer. She reads through the whole problem before answering. She is getting more and more proficient with basic addition and subtraction and is very confident when telling time. "

"During today's session, the student and I worked on linear equations with inequalities. He did well with this session because he is becoming more confident with his skills. He worked on his homework, which was inequalities with fractions solving for one variable. For the next session, we will continue to work on linear equations. "
