Lesson Comments
Sophie and I are only scheduled to meet twice a week, one hour each time (per her mother's request). Sophie is concerned that taking so few hours will require her to come in during the summer to finish the course. She was not sure why her mother only set up 2 hours a week. She is also interested in moving the time up so that it is a little earlier for her (if possible).

Lesson Comments
We were able to move through the first 3 sections of the book really quickly because Sophie was able to recall the concepts that she has learned in the past. She is a bit negative about the concepts that she will learn in the future, but from working with her in the past, I know that she will be fine.
