"The student and I met to go over his extra credit assignment and to review for his test on Wednesday. We will be getting together for the next three days to prepare for his exam on Wednesday. I think he will do well with all of the practice we will be doing. "

"The student and I continued to go over her English project. We worked out a Thesis and went over some important points to keep in the summary. We used the preparation for discussing main points and arguments to help with the Compass exam. Furthermore, we worked on comma usage, and I sent her home with some homework that should help her practice those."

"We reviewed parametric equations and worked through several example problems. I had the student pretend that she was teaching me about parametrics in order to make sure she understood the theory behind the concept. "

"In today's session, I reviewed the chapter that covered protists with the student. After going through the chapter, I tested him on the vocabulary words in the chapter since he will have a quiz over them tomorrow. Progress was good overall. The student just had a little trouble remembering the names of the different protists. "

"Worked with the student on further analysis of an Emily Dickinson poem ahead of his paper on the poem. We talked about the way in which various levels of analysis can all contribute to a more complete understanding of the poem, and the way in which we can synthesize multiple layers of information into a thesis that explains a great deal about the poem. As always, great session."

"In this session we covered more chapters on verbal skills in the practice book and went through the answers to a practice test she had taken. In the practice book we covered more of the Reading section, and also did an overview and practice questions on spelling, punctuation, and capitalization. On the exam we went through the answers she got wrong on the verbal skills section. On the quantitative section, she worked through the first half of the Mathematics section which she had not completed yet."

"Today we went over the practice test I had the student take last week focusing mainly on math and English content. We discussed math strategies and created flash cards with the most important math formulas on them. We went over the questions in detail and refreshed on general test strategies--most importantly doing the easiest questions first and the process of elimination. We talked about uses of commas, dashes, semicolons, and colons, as well as tone and word choice. She has shown a strong ability to reason through questions so we are focusing on getting her familiar with the test and proficient in using effective test strategies. "

"Today, the student and I worked on exam practice problems. We also reviewed several math topics that I believe she needed practice on. The topics included simplifying expressions and algebraic expressions; + -, x, / fractions; multiplying 3 and 4 digits; and + - decimals to the thousandths. I noted that she was able to solve geometry logic problems. We will continue to review areas next week."

"First, we reviewed his Science test. Next, we studied his vocabulary words and definitions. He then made vocabulary flashcards to use to study for the week. Lastly, we worked on IRAs. I made spelling corrections on the ones he already finished (by circling the words), while he wrote out an IRA on Chapter 11. He used the cause and effect model for the web."

"During yesterday's session, the student and I organized her discussion topics for a debate that she has coming up, on the topic of Reintegration Programs in natural habitats, as part of her Science class's Biodiversity Unit. We spent most of our session focusing on the concept of Indirect Characterization as a literary term, since she was going to have a quiz on it the next day. Her literature teacher had provided an mnemonic acronym for how to remember the five types of indirect characterizations of characters, and she and I delved deeper into ways to remember and identify those five types, if it appeared on a quiz. At the close of the session, we reviewed verb conjugations and she took a test online to assess her mastery of those conjugations, on which she scored 100%."
