Recent San Diego Tutoring Session Notes
The student and I went over her homework for the power and chain rule. She understands this concept well, with the trig giving her issues only when power and chain are needed. She did well on her past quiz, and just wanted to check in & make sure she was on track after missing a lot of school for college visits.

The student and I spent this session working on an outline for a paper. She had a well-developed idea and we devoted most of our time to writing topic sentences and transitions. She has vastly improved her understanding of the function and purpose of topic sentences and made significant strides during our session in the crafting of transition and topic sentences. By the end of the session she had a good outline to work with when writing her paper.

The student and I reviewed the reading section and tried different strategies to find the one that works best for her in terms of timing and accuracy. We ultimately decided that looking at the questions first and then going back to the passage works best for her. We then practiced the English section and fine-tuned some strategies to answer those questions accurately.

The student and I worked on her Spanish project. We wrote several advice column letters and responses, making use of the subjunctive mood. We also reviewed new vocabulary words about relationships. She has improved in her knowledge of verb conjugations and vocabulary. She recently received an 85 on a Spanish test which is a huge improvement.

The student and I met with the goal of finalizing her paper. She had found two additional articles which she wanted to use as sources. She had not had a chance to begin the first (literature review) section of her paper. She worked the argument/analysis portion. She was able to complete the introduction and background portions. Approximately 2-3 pages remain to be written for this part of the paper. She will finish writing the paper tonight. She has requested that we meet in the morning so that I can review the entire paper before she turns it in.
