Recent Atlanta Tutoring Session Notes
The student sent me over his paper, which I edited for him. I just used track changes ... I checked for basic grammatical errors, typos, problems in flow, transitions, etc. I think it turned out well.

The student was reviewing the last two sections that were covered in class, which are the last two sections that will be covered for the whole year. The sections included Algebra review, graphing linear equations, using information to create equations of lines and then graphing them. He was having very little trouble with this section, and was able to work through all the extra practice problems for the sections fairly easily, only with small negative sign and arithmetic errors.

The student and I studied for his test on the Catcher in the Rye for this Thursday. We began by reviewing the final two chapters of the book and then talking about some broad themes and motifs. Then we looked specifically at the study guide provided by his instructor. We worked through each of the listed characters and plot moments and discussed their significance. We used an online directory of the page numbers to locate each of the characters and the plot moments. We read the sections of the book pertaining to them and then discussed their significance. At the end of the session, we drew out a plan for his studying for the rest of the week. He will meet with a student from his class to discuss the book further throughout the week (during his study period on Thursday for a final session), and then he will privately review the yellow study sheet pertaining to methods of humor.
