Recent Tutoring Session Reviews

"The student had two online assessments that she wanted to review. The curriculum spirals, so we talked about integers, fraction-to-decimal conversions, order of operations, and properties of operations. We also discussed sequences."

"Today the student and I reviewed how to approach optimization problems. The student worked through a take-home project that covered a wide range of optimization problems. After that, the student worked through some rotation problems for physics and we discussed how to use the right-hand rule."

"The student and I spent the better part of an hour going over problems involving u-substitution. I couldn't find a problem that she couldn't solve. Integration really seems to make sense to her. Overall, it was a nice lesson today."

"We continue to work on writing and fine motor skills. The student is able to make all his numbers to 6, and is using the headline, midline and baseline to correctly form his letters. I had him create a couple of work samples to check and see if he has remembered his letter and number formation. We worked on the letter p and the letter b, both recognition and making the letter sound. At the end of our session we played a simple counting game, which he was very enthusiastic about. I made some recommendations to his mom in terms of numbers and writing, as well as purchasing a lined write on board and some jumbo dice. "

"The student and I worked on applications of the first and second derivative in motion, constant acceleration problems, free fall and trajectory problems, velocity, acceleration, initial velocity, and position."

"We completed a diagnostic test for vocabulary, reading, and listening. The student has excellent listening, reading, and speaking skills for English, and he is at an intermediate/advanced level. Next, we worked on Chapters 1-3 from the book and learned about present/past/future tenses, stressed syllables, silent syllables, pronunciation of vowels and combined vowels, and irregular verbs. We also practiced listening and speaking skills by watching videos and discussing the concepts in the videos."

"Today, we covered number theory, counting principles, and a little geometry. I left the student with 3 small practice sections as well as 2 worksheets-- one on factoring and another on exponents and their properties. She responded positively to what I was teaching. Next time I see her, we will score what I assigned her and start measuring her progress quantitatively."

"We talked about definite integrals, antiderivatives, the unit circle, trig identities, and derivatives and integrals of trig functions. The student struggled only slightly with antiderivatives, rational exponents, and integrals of trig functions. She was engaged with the material. She had sent me worked-out problems ahead of our session; she was well-prepared for the session. We talked about making flashcards for trig identities and for the derivatives of trig functions. She said that she felt better about the material after we finished our session - WIN!"

"The student is learning about factoring trinomial functions. The key to this type of question is to recognize its format and all the factors for each terms. He had trouble with basic arithmetic which is addition, subtraction, multiplication, division of positive and negative numbers. We briefly went over the concept of arithmetic to ensure he feels comfortable with doing simple math and doesn't make mistakes to put himself in a difficult situation. It is important to factor out all the possible factors before he is able to recognize the possible combination to the question. When the combination is established, he must reverse the function to check for its validity by using the FOIL method. He needs some work on the steps involving factoring and FOIL, which he needs additional problems to practice on in order to achieve proficiency."

"We reviewed and practiced on problems mostly about derivatives, which can be computed explicitly and implicitly depending on how the equations are given. To compute derivatives, we sometimes need to use product rule, quotient rule, and chain rule. "

"Today we had a general test to set our starting point. In most of the questions/ problems the student remembered how to work those operations. I think he felt confident so we are going to develop and work a learning plan so he can develop not only confidence but accuracy."
