"We completed the student's homework (Section 8-D, "Angles of Elevation and Depression"). Then we completed a chapter review except for vectors which covers the material on his quiz on Wednesday. Finally, we started the Chapter 8 Test. The student should get close to 100% on his quiz. "

"Today we discussed the student's significantly improved scores in the untimed LSATs, recently reaching 163. From now on, she will be timed while taking practice LSATs, although we are starting at a generous 80 minutes per section, which we will gradually work down to 35 as the test approaches. Today we practiced reading comprehension, and discussed strategies for specific types of LSAT logical reasoning questions, specifically strengthen, weaken, and parallel reasoning. "

"The student had a geometry test today so we went over all her material for her test to make sure she was comfortable with it. She understood the material fairly well and felt good about taking her test. We also went over probability which would be bonus material on her test. We're hoping for a 100!"

"The student has a test next week, so we spent our time today doing review. Our time was split 50-50 between the Pythagorean theorem and factoring trinomials. We've worked on both tasks before, and other than an initial nudge in the right direction, he did not need much help."

"The student and I did his final preparation for his final exam in calculus. We went over questions that he had from practice problems and studied the materials covered in the practice exams that he completed independently. We concentrated on integration by parts and u substitution as well as reviewing Riemann sums and a number of smaller topics. We finished up with a study plan for him to complete that evening before the test."

"Today, I gave the student a set of review problems at the beginning of our session. He performed well, except for trouble with problems with fractions - especially when "x" is in the denominator. I explained the correct solutions to those problems, and he learned them well. I then gave him a quiz on the homework for today, which was Chapter 7, Algebraic Expressions. He did well, especially on the multiplication of binomials. He understands the application of the FOIL acronym well. I introduced the next lesson, Chapter 8 - Functions, for which we will meet next Tuesday."

"We covered the chapter 6 study guide for the chemistry class. We annotated existing notes and the study guide with different colored pens and highlighters to serve as a reminder and also bring attention to details missed when working through problems. By the end of the session we went through several example problems of each topic until we were confident that each problem could be completed successfully. Reminders for this section are to double check that the octet is fulfilled, and move around lone pairs if it is not. "

"The student asked to work on factoring in today's session. He is doing better. Today, we reviewed grouping and GCF, but we spent the bulk of the time on perfect square trinomials. He does not yet recognize them on sight (still needs to understand how the "b" coefficient is derived), so we will need to practice factoring them more in the next session. "

"The student and I used this session to work through his study guide for an upcoming geometry quiz. It covered topics including perpendicular and parallel line formulas given a single point, distance and midpoint formulas, and determination of perimeter and area of irregular polygons. He was more comfortable with the latter topic, so we mostly worked on practicing those types of problems. "

"We were reviewing for her upcoming Algebra 2 test. It includes two parts: a unit specific section and a cumulative section. We focused on series, reviewing the explicit and recursive rules for algebraic and geometric series and how to manipulate them to find different values (a1, r, n, etc.). "

"We went over the first half of studying for the student's final exam. We discussed different sampling methods, five-number summaries, using z-scores to find probabilities, calculating mean for probability distributions, and finding binomial probabilities. She did well with the material, and I think she will do well on her exam if she shows all of our work and double checks the rounding. "
