"We worked through a homework packet covering various subjects. The student had some issues finding the zeroes of high-order polynomials, but after reminding her how to do synthetic division, she was much more successful. Problems also involved the equations, vertices and foci of parabolas. She was able to relate these as well as write out the equations in standard form. She had some trouble relating the directrix and focus to the vertex of a line, but we worked through a few problems until she could solve the both graphically and algebraically. I showed her how to find the asymptotes of hyperbolas as well."

"Today we spent the first hour of the session working on chemistry. The student had two labs to work on in calorimetry. One of the labs involved burning snack foods and measuring the change of water temperature that absorbed the heat from the fire. We talked about sources of error for a while. We then started work on studying for his Geometry final. We went back to module 6 and re-took the pretest and the actual multiple choice test, and we wrote a cheat sheet for that module. "

"The student completed her math summer packet which included multiple topics covered in the previous scholastic year such as angles, solving linear equations, and percentages. She recalled the majority of topics covered, struggling slightly only when solving for complementary and supplementary angles. She will review during the rest of the week."

"The student and I reviewed for his philosophy final. He is doing a good job at remembering ideas and how they associate with particular philosophers. I've suggested reviewing exact questions from previous tests since this final will be comprehensive. From his notes, we have organized information to be chronological as the schools of thought evolved."

"Tonight we worked primarily on a practice state assessment test that was 14 questions long. One thing that I learned during this session is that the student needs to work on memorizing formulas for area and that her biggest issue is time management. She is so positive and willing to keep trying, which makes for a successful session in my book! I plan to give her a few specific problems in our next session where she will need to explain her thought process in detail so I can continue uncovering her challenge areas."

"We covered all of chapter 1, postulates and theorems, as well as the first two sections of chapter two. The student needed help with conceptualizing the postulates. What helped significantly was creating visual references of what the theorems and postulates were conveying as well as creating a study "cheat sheet" of the important concepts. The homework went by quickly and he was really seeming to get the concepts as we went along, answering faster and coming up with the answers correctly, with willingness to go back over step-by-step processes. The biggest win was that he was able to explain each postulate and create proofs using his own words. "

"The student and I worked on the information that would be covered on her test the next day. This information included adding and subtracting 2- and 3-dimensional vectors, multiplying vectors by scalars, graphing vectors, finding the angle between two vectors, finding unit vectors, and finding and using magnitude. We also briefly reviewed her new material on polar graphs and converting between polar and rectangular coordinates."

"The student and I worked on mean, median, mode, and range. He needed help with the definitions of each which he understood after reviewing and performing a few problems. We also worked on dot and box plots and IRQs. This was a great session!"

"The student worked on his takehome test involving sequences and series, and covered infinite series, which was on the test but not covered in class due to his teacher's absence. He had a good understanding of it and we demonstrated why sometimes adding an infinite amount of numbers can converge to a finite sum. "

"Today's session introduced the concept of oxidation/reduction reactions. We assigned oxidation numbers to each element in a chemical formula, identified oxidation/reduction reactions, labeled half reaction types, determined oxidizing/reducing agents, used the transfer of electrons to balance equations. In the next session we will introduce voltaic cells. "

"The student worked on English and Math homework today. In English, we focused on different types of verbs. The student's math homework was finding solutions to a system of equations. He did great on both homework assignments today. His confidence was especially strong in math. He was able to work through the problems with minimal support. He has a test in English next Monday about nouns, verbs, adjectives, and pronouns. I also asked him to find out when the next math test was going to be. Next week, I will give him a timed test in math to see if he's able to complete the problems on his own. "
