Motivating Math lessons with interactive problem solving

A tutor and a student from Indiana University Bloomington reviewed geometric sequences, applications of geometric progression, and time series analysis, including trends, seasonality, and smoothing data. The learner practiced calculating geometric terms, seasonal indices, and deseasonalized data. They briefly touched on linear regression and will schedule another lesson to continue.

The learner, who resides in Bloomington, focused on geometry concepts, including the distance formula, simplifying radicals, and various angle relationships such as bisectors, vertical angles, linear pairs, supplementary, and complementary angles. They practiced solving problems related to these topics and plan to ask their teacher about the justification for some solutions.

Jagnoor and Jess engaged in a comprehensive math lesson, starting with a review of bivariate data analysis. This included an exploration of data types, associations between variables, scatter plots, correlation coefficients, and regression lines. Following this, their mathematics discussion transitioned to arithmetic and geometric sequences, where they covered definitions, formulas, and practical applications like simple interest and depreciation. They have scheduled their next lesson to focus on further applications of geometric sequences and time series analysis.

An instructor worked with a student from North Hempstead, reviewing differentiation, including the chain rule, quotient rule, logarithmic differentiation, and trigonometric derivatives. The learner practiced applying these rules to various problems and received feedback on their technique. The next lesson will cover implicit differentiation, and the instructor will provide a worksheet for further practice.

Jagnoor tutored a student from Downtown LA on integral applications, specifically finding areas between curves and volumes of solids of revolution, in preparation for a test. The learner practiced setting up integrals and determining limits of integration for both area and volume problems. They scheduled additional lessons for further review and Jagnoor will send notes and summaries.

During a recent math lesson, Jagnoor Cheema tutored Kendall on simplifying fractions and adding unlike fractions. Kendall diligently practiced simplifying various fractions and adding unlike fractions using common denominators, receiving valuable guidance on divisibility rules and simplification techniques. They agreed to continue their work on fraction operations, including subtraction and mixed fractions, in their upcoming lesson.
