Recent Carrollton Tutoring Session Notes

Tutoring review by Julia in Carrollton, GA
The student worked math this afternoon. First, she took a test of 16 multiple choice questions on functions and scored 14 correct answers. The test also had short answer questions. The student learned to think of a function as a "machine" that does a "job" or rule. The machine takes in x's, applies the rule, and gives answers that are y's. A function is also the same as an in-out table with a rule -- or a graph in the (x, y) plane. Then the student learned how to combine like terms. The degree of a term is the exponent on the variable. The student has a higher grade in math than she did when we started working together, having gained confidence and skills. She also has a strong foundation of prior knowledge.

Tutoring review by Gabriel in Carrollton, GA
Concepts: Similar figures, proportions, corresponding parts of similar figures, rotations, reflections. Attitude: Positive. Enthusiastic to work on problems. Strategies/Study Skills: Go over the question looking for what they want you to find and what information they have given you. Think of it as a path where the given information is the start and what you want to find is at the end. We went over past assignments looking at what problems were incorrect. I used questions to help guide the student to figuring out why his initial answer was not correct and why the correct answer was supported by the information in the problem.

Tutoring review by Dana in Carrollton, GA
The student had a book that she was practicing with, which she read to me. She did very well sounding out words she had difficulty with. We then began practicing again with the vocabulary flashcards and she did much better this time. Her ability to combine letter sounds into words is becoming stronger.

Tutoring review by Tanvi in Carrollton, GA
The student and I worked together using an SAT preparatory book. We mostly worked on math exercises from this book by having her do one of the exercises first followed by us going over the exercise together and re-doing problems that she had trouble with. We mostly worked on fractions, word problems, geometry and functions. We also discussed some testing strategies related to the math section of the SAT. Before the next tutoring session, I asked her to check out a practice book from the local library and complete the reading and math section of one of the practice tests so that I could better identify the areas she needs more help with in subsequent sessions. We will be going over this test in the next class.

Tutoring review by Abigail in Carrollton, GA
To start off our second session, the student and I spent some time talking about her impressions of her Latin class this year. She seemed overall prepared and fairly confident. We then transitioned into talking about the topic she had covered in class that week: demonstrative pronouns. To start, we spent a few minutes discussing the types of pronouns in Latin, what each means, and how to translate them accurately. We then looked at the forms of the two specific demonstrative pronouns that she was expected to memorize. To help with her memorization, I encouraged her to try and see patterns within the forms, and to draw similarities between the forms of the pronouns and the noun paradigms she had already learned. We also discussed different techniques for memorization, including chanting, writing each word down several times, and making flashcards. Then, we looked over her homework assignment and worked through the first few questions together. I encouraged her to take the lead here, and provided guidance and tips rather than answers. To finish our session, we spent about 20 minutes reviewing vocabulary. She displayed a pretty thorough mastery of the words for which she had made flashcards this week. I asked her to make flashcards for another 5 chapters worth of material, which we will review next week. With a bit more work at memorization, the student will be well on her way to success in Latin.

Tutoring review by Erica in Carrollton, GA
The student and I continued to work on slope. We've incorporated a lot of colorful diagrams into her notebook. I've noticed that her attitude towards math itself has gotten much more relaxed compared to the high-stress sessions we had about a month ago. She is doing very well in her class.
