Math tutor near me in Queens, NY

Kaylah tutors "cookie dough" on solving logarithmic equations. They work through problems involving combining logs, exponentiating, and factoring, including those with natural logs (ln). Kaylah then demonstrates two methods to solve 2log₂(x) = 3 + log₂(x-2): one using the quotient rule and the other converting the constant to a logarithmic expression. Both methods lead to the solution x=4, and Kaylah stresses understanding logarithmic rules and relationships.

Justin tutored Edward on pre-calculus and introductory calculus concepts. Edward reviewed polynomials, learned to determine end behavior based on leading coefficients and degrees, and explored approximating slopes and areas under curves. Justin assigned Edward to prepare an explanation of learned physics concepts for the next session.

Kaylah tutors "cookie dough" on exponents and logarithms, reviewing rules, properties, and problem-solving techniques. She demonstrates solving logarithmic equations using methods like equating the inside of the log to 1 and exponentiating with the base, emphasizing natural logs and logs with different bases. They work through examples, including using the quadratic formula, and Kaylah clarifies the process of exponentiating to eliminate logarithms. They plan to continue practicing logs before moving on to polynomials.

Priya tutored Harrieth on applying properties of multiplication to simplify calculations. Harrieth worked on exercises from exercise 1.3, focusing on using the distributive property effectively. Priya assigned revisions to the completed questions and will continue practice with statement questions in the next session.

Chehak assisted Arianna with extra credit problems involving the Pythagorean theorem and trigonometric ratios. Arianna practiced identifying sides of triangles and applying sine, cosine, and tangent to solve for unknown values. They are scheduled to meet again on Saturday, pending Arianna's discussion with her teacher.

Shivani tutored Mia on quadratic functions, focusing on converting between general, vertex, and intercept forms. Mia practiced converting equations between these forms with Shivani's guidance. They also identified the vertex from the vertex form equation and discussed renewing lessons for upcoming exams.
