"We reviewed the test for Intentional torts. The student got 14/20 correct. We went over all the questions explaining techniques of being able to pick the correct answers in law school MCQ."

"We started with a review of the unit circle, graph properties of trig functions, and arc length. The student is slowly gaining ready familiarity with these important concepts. Per her request we spent the rest of the session reviewing for her upcoming physics test. The subject matter tied nicely into what she's been doing in trig - waves. Most of the work we did was discussing the concepts of wave behavior including reflection, refraction, diffraction, dispersion, propagation through mediums, and interference. We discussed the Doppler effect, and sonic booms. I quizzed the student on the differences and similarities between light and sound, then we went over a few problems involving frequency, wavelength, and period. The student seems to have a fairly solid grasp of the concepts, but we ended up emphasizing vocabulary."

"Since this was our last session, we went over the remaining problems from the student's practice test sections. She plans to review some math questions, English questions, and a reading and science passage on Friday. We reviewed test taking strategies we have gone over this summer as well as discussed small tips to help anxiety on test day."

"Today the student did some timed practice sections to get used to working with the time limits on the SAT. After she finished, we reviewed the questions she had trouble with and she finished the rest of the section that she didn't have time for. She is getting better at finishing on time and improving her percentage of correct questions as well, which is a good sign. For next week she will be doing a practice math section online."

"We covered logarithmic equations, exponential equations, transformation of graphs, basic algebra, domain and range, and interval notation. The student understood the problems better after discussion. "

"We went over math concepts (triangle sum theory, transversals). Now that the student has a grasp of basic concepts, he needs to use that to find different angles from complex figures. We also worked on biology after that. He has a test today, so we went over his study guide for biology. I want him to understand what we are looking at rather than memorizing what's on his paper."

"We covered the concept of motion, taking acceleration and velocity into account. We had to be concerned with converting units from those given in the problem to those needed to solve the problem."

"The student and I worked on division for most of this session. I think that this lesson had initially seemed really daunting for her because of the overly technical language that the lesson (online) used--by clarifying the terms and providing some different examples, she seemed to grasp the concepts easily. She did a nice job keeping track of all of the steps of the operations and did really well with dividing fractions. Solving for the domain threw her for a bit, but she was able to recover quickly. After reviewing division, we went over other concepts from her unit, since all she has left is the unit exam. We went over matrices and using a number line, focusing on those times when you're calculating totals that include negative numbers. Again, she did a great job, and it's wonderful to see her continued perseverance and success! "

"We began this session by going over the first student's recent Algebra 2 Quiz. The topics were arithmetic and geometric sequences. In total we used and applied 4 different general formulas: the recursive and explicit formulas for both arithmetic and geometric sequences. We also worked through their homework and practiced many problems. In addition to the Algebra 2 homework we also discussed some topics related to chemistry. The second student was wondering about the wavelengths of light, in particular with respect to black-lights. I talked about the Bohr model of the atom and the associated electron energy level transitions. We then also discussed relativistic effects on wavelengths and some astronomy as it pertained to chemistry. Overall the students were both very enthusiastic during the tutoring session."

"We finished the story we began during the last session. Though difficult, the student adjusted well and for the most part just needs to find consistency in reading. We also looked at some more common English words and various sound combinations. Some of these are easy for him, some of them are a little more complicated, due to the variety in English. Overall, the session went well."

"I worked with the student to help him solve quadratic equations. The student understands how to solve quadratic equations using various methods including factoring, square root method, completing the square, and the quadratic formula. I gave him some problems to complete and then reviewed simplifying the radical and canceling out the common factors in the numerator and denominator. He then practiced determining how many solutions a quadratic equation has. I showed him some graphs and how the quadratic looked with one, two, and no solutions. He understands the content. The session went well, and he was very attentive."
