Hayley's recent test scores showcased her outstanding progress. Throughout our review, she exhibited a good comprehension of linear equations, skillfully traced the step-by-step procedures. Additionally, we pinpointed particular junctures in her problem-solving journey where she encounters difficulties, enabling us to formulate a more effective organizational strategy. In the domain of Rebus puzzles, Hayley steadily acquired a firm grasp of the concept, successfully deciphering few examples. Regarding Story Riddles, her critical thinking skills continues to grow, and she able to resolved some of them. She formulates closed-ended questions and approaches them with confidence, arriving at the few correct solutions.

Hayley is still in the process of familiarizing herself with certain aspects, occasionally encountering difficulties and losing her way, particularly in the middle of problem-solving processes. It appears that we may need to refine the way she documents her processes to provide her with a clearer overview. In the context of Rebus puzzles, she managed to solve some but encountered challenges with others, indicating the need for exposure to a wider variety of puzzles for further improvement. As for Story Riddles, Hayley occasionally loses interest when faced with lengthy sentences or paragraphs. However, she seems to find joy in devising problem-solving strategies for these challenges. It might be beneficial to expose her to more word problems to enhance her engagement and skills in this area.

Her engagement and openness were evident as we delved into the origins of Math. While tackling distributive property math problems, she demonstrated competence in specific areas, although she encountered occasional confusion when dealing with written components, resulting in overlooking certain elements within the problem. Notably, when prompted to elucidate her solutions, she adeptly pinpointed her own mistakes. Furthermore, when presented with intricate written questions, she successfully answered a portion of them. It's important to note that these written questions are intentionally designed to pose challenges, and while she may not have answered all of them, she did achieve accuracy in addressing several.

Encouraging her to engage with algebraic problems, which align with her current school lessons, could be really beneficial. The more she practices, the more skilled she'll become. Converting these problems into written format might also help with her written math challenge. I'll also include some thought-provoking questions to stimulate her thinking and introduce her to the creative side of geometry art. Maintaining her motivation for math is crucial, given her understanding of its practical significance.

Positive aspects include our ability to acknowledge the challenges she's facing. I also observed her strong performance in completing certain homework assignments. We identified that her struggles arose when equations or formulas were presented in written form, while she fared better with numerical equations. This suggests a potential hurdle related to translating word-based math problems. Additionally, she might encounter typical difficulties in maintaining focus on tasks.

I perceive that her primary area for improvement lies in tackling written mathematical problems. While maintaining her proficiency in solving numerical problems, there is room to enhance her skills with word-based equations. Moreover, emphasizing the value of mathematics could serve as a source of motivation for her.

My communication with Oscar went smoothly as he was open and easy to talk to, freely expressing his thoughts. We successfully identified the specific math lessons he is struggling with and were able to align them with his future goal. He informed me that he is currently training as an athlete, allowing us to incorporate the practical use of math into his training activities and sports science. Furthermore, upon reviewing his notes, we discovered that he is doing exceptionally well in Chemfields, his favorite subject. We also established the relevance of math in daily life and established a strong connection with Oscar.

To improve, Oscar primarily needs consistency in his approach to math. We must solidify his motivation and interest in the subject, as he occasionally finds some math concepts impractical or irrelevant to daily life. We have already begun addressing this concern, but we need to maintain a consistent approach moving forward. Additionally, there are several gaps from previous lessons, such as Theorems and trigonometry, that we need to revisit to ensure a strong foundation.
