I was very proud that Michael did so well under pressure.
I have seen so much improvement since his first session with me!
I feel confident he will perform well on his ACT test this Saturday.

Michael completed an ACT science practice test that I assigned for homework: pages 640. He scored 34 out of 40.
We reviewed his incorrect answers and he now understands his mistakes.
Next, we worked on a new science practice test (passages 3,4,5,6 on pages 514-521).
I assigned Michael the following homework: full science practice test (pages 772-783)

Michael completed his ACT science practice test that I assigned for homework! He did GREAT! He only got 2 questions wrong out of 40!
We reviewed the 2 incorrect questions and worked on a new science practice test (passages 1 and 2 on pages 509-512). Lastly, we worked on passage 6 (page 930-931) since passage 6 is the most challenging. Michael scored 100% on that passage.
I assigned Michael passages 1-5 (page 920) for homework. We will review his work during our session tomorrow, June 1st at 2pm.
