Recent SAT Subject Test in Spanish with Listening Tutoring Session Notes
Completed critical reading sections in practice test 1. Reviewed test-taking fundamentals and strategies. Composite score of practice test 1 was calculated (530). We began section 4 of practice test 2 and assigned the rest as homework.
We continued to look at topics from life science that are on the exam. I explained basic genetics to her. We looked over more word problems and she did a lot better with taking them apart to get the answers correct.
The student worked on all four subtests. He is eager to do well, but he is making a lot of mistakes while working. I am going to give him more instruction and preparation and work more collaboratively with him. His goal is a 29 or higher, but his diagnostic was a 17. He is still in the low or mid 20s. I believe he needs to do more homework. I may suggest an additional book.
We picked up where we left off, covering some of her less favored topics like logarithms, advanced trig, and percentages. Aside from some material-based issues, She simply needs to finish her thoughts on paper to avoid making silly mistakes at the end of problems.
Worked through math grid-in problems to identify most important math topics to cover; need to work on ratios/percents and area/perimeter, but greater facility with functions is apparent. Tweaked an essay outline and worked on choosing and using examples.
We worked on the English section today in much the same way we covered science before. The student takes a practice test and we analyze it together, except with English we focused on some concepts she did not remember or was not familiar with. The English section requires knowledge of grammar, so we covered dashes and pronoun-antecedent agreement. She got a 19 on the practice section, but it was a loud environment for some of the test.
