About Waukesha
New Englanders first settled Waukesha, Wisconsin, in 1834, and those coming to the area were mainly from Maine, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Vermont, and New Hampshire. These farmers came to this Wisconsin area as part of the Northwest Territory expansion after the completion of the Erie Canal. Waukesha is an Anglicization of the Potawatomi proper name Was-tsha, who was a leader of a local tribe during the time the area was settled. Waukesha was incorporated as a village in 1847, and it was incorporated as a city in 1896.
There are six public high schools in Waukesha, which are all managed by the Waukesha School District. The Waukesha Academy of Health Professions and the Waukesha Engineering Preparatory Academy have both received bronze medals from US News for their great academic programs. An additional private high school in the city is Catholic Memorial High School. At either of these schools, a Waukesha, WI, tutor can encourage you to possibly meet and then exceed your goals while you progress your education.

Recent Tutoring Session Reviews
The student and I worked on percentages. She has a very good understanding of the process, but needs to be more attentive to computation. We discussed thinking about whether the answer found makes sense (without actually double-checking), as well as writing down more of her work in order to catch her mistakes.

I introduced student 1 and student 2 to some general strategies for the SAT and gave them a handout I developed on these strategies. We then began reviewing the question types and accompanying strategies for the Critical Reading section. We worked through some sample questions together as we practiced implementing these strategies. For homework, I assigned them a complete verbal half of a practice SAT. They will take it and score it themselves to see what areas we need to review and how this practice score compares to their scores on the real SAT that they took cold-turkey before our tutoring began.

This session the focus was Drawing Conclusions and Understanding of Vocabulary. The client did well reading through the higher level content. The passages were a little more challenging with the vocabulary and use of connecting previous knowledge. The material covered was linked to history and social studies content. From the previous meeting, the client completed the story and was able to recall the sequence of events. She understood the vocabulary and was able to connect her own experiences to the story.

Today we learned parts of the body and reviewed the months. The student also learned how to say 'he is happy' (or whatever emotion). He was also introduced to the question structure of 'what is your favorite...?". Whether he realized it or not, he probably spoke more Spanish today than other lessons. He was able to ask and answer questions from the worksheets, even if he was reluctant to do so. :D
