We did some preliminary work on his research paper on Dante's Purgatorio. Mostly, he needed study skills help at this point: learning to ask questions, use a dictionary, take notes, and think about themes. We also talked about thesis statements.

Today we reviewed the results of the student's most recent math test. Her overall math grade is far higher than either the student or the parent thought it would be. Because of this we completed her math homework, I checked it, and then we shifted the focus onto science. She has a test next Thursday, so we worked through the review as well as made flash cards for key vocabulary. Our plan next Monday and Wednesday is to continue reviewing the text, review the flash cards, and take the practice test. I think in addition to knowing the information in the chapter we are working on her confidence. She has low confidence in math and science in general, which we are working to overcome. After the text next week we are going to review the information in the previous chapter in order to begin preparing for the midterm.

Session with the student. We went over a test review today for an exam she will have next week. The material covered: sine, cosine, tangent, csc, sec, cot, coterminal angles, reference angles, converting degrees to radians and radians to degrees, etc. I feel that she understands the material well and should do good on her test.

The student and I went over the Math section of the diagnostic ACT that she took. At the end of the session I gave her a lot of strategies that she could use for the different sections - we went over some of them in more detail than what was written on the page.
