Thank you for your help! What you said reminded me these are linear equations. These stressed me out, so I appreciate it.

You demonstrated a solid understanding of the material, particularly in explaining domain, range, and graphing concepts. Your ability to simplify complex ideas, such as continuous versus discrete functions and piecewise graphs, was evident throughout the session. For example, your explanation of how to identify the extremes of a graph and plot a line segment between them helped clarify the process for Jessica. Additionally, your use of interactive tools like screen sharing and encouraging Jessica to work through examples on her own paper fostered an engaging and collaborative learning environment. To further enhance your teaching, consider incorporating more visual aids or step-by-step written examples to support your verbal explanations.

You created a comfortable learning environment through your patient and approachable demeanor. Your willingness to revisit concepts multiple times and adapt your explanations to Jessica’s needs helped her feel supported throughout the session. Additionally, your use of humor (e.g., mentioning you were also using a Chromebook) added a personal touch that likely made Jessica feel more at ease.

You effectively checked Jessica’s prior knowledge by asking about her familiarity with domain and range early in the session. This allowed you to gauge her understanding and adjust your explanations accordingly. When she expressed confusion about specific questions, such as whether certain graphs were functions or how to interpret arrows on a graph, you patiently revisited the concepts and provided clear guidance. You kept her engaged by encouraging her to actively participate in solving problems and asking clarifying questions like “What would the Y value always be?” This approach ensured that she remained involved in the learning process. By confirming her progress with consistent feedback, such as “There we go!” and “Exactly,” you helped build her confidence as she worked through challenging material.
