Recent Tutoring Session Reviews

During this session the student began preparing for her final exam in Geometry. We focused primarily on properties of parallelograms, parallel lines and transversals, triangle inequalities, and similarity. Overall, she showed a good understanding of the material and was able to solve most problems with little intervention after reviewing the basics. She did struggle with recalling properties of parallelograms as it had been several months since this material was covered in class, but she was able to apply them fluently after review. Before our next session, she should review parallelogram properties, and I recommended that she complete the next several sections of her final exam review packet.

We worked on the law of cosines and law of sines. The student understood the formulas involved, but couldn't memorize them. I showed him visually (on an actual triangle what information is needed) and how to connect them to the formula. We then went over a couple of word problems so that he could apply the formulas. He felt more comfortable with the material.
