Award-Winning Private Trigonometry Tutoring in University of Louisville, KY

"The students did very well today. We worked together on math with all three students. The first student is very skilled at solving problems and seems to only make mistakes when he rushes. We will work on this and also introduce some work with parts of speech as we discussed. The second student did well on his problem set and just needs to practice answering the question being asked. The third student and I worked briefly on some larger multiplication and order of operations. All three students are very math-minded and great at doing fast mental math, which is a great skill. We will work on organizing their thoughts so they always get the right answer. "

"The students finished Unit 6 about staying on topic in writing. We also completed Unit 1, Chapter 2 in Social Studies covering pre-European Native Americans. I reviewed and drilled one student on linear equations, especially plotting graphs and learning y=mx+b. "

"The students had a test coming up, so I reviewed factoring, completing the square, and simplifying rational expressions. They were generally solid on algebra and processes, but messed up things like signs and distributing, so I emphasized attentiveness to these when steps get complex. "

"The students had an algebra 2 online quiz. The material covered logs and exponential notation. I reviewed the concept of converting between the 2 equations. We also reviewed some of the algebra rules of exponents - what negative exponents represent and how to express roots as exponents (as fractions). Student 1 had more initial questions about the material, but by the end, both seemed to have a firm grasp on the material. They were each able to answer the last 2 questions completely on their own. After math, I helped both of them with an English assignment. They had to write a haiku based on an online ad. They each had their own ideas, and I just helped them flush out their phrasing that they wanted to incorporate into their haiku poem."
