My seventh tutoring session with P.J. was a lot more encouraging for me than the previous one. I finally starting to understand how to question him about the English in the math word problems in a way that started to make sense for him. I would ask "Okay so what word in the sentence tells you something about the math?". He would reply with "the word "each" told me division". This was just one example of the many where he was able to show me that he was comprehending more of what the word problems were truly getting at.
