Test # 2 (during my tutelage) happened last week, and I heard the results tonight.
On his Triangle Geometry test from last Thursday, my student received a terrific 91%, while the average across the grade for that test was somewhere in the high 70s (meaning that he beat the average by more than a full grade, once again).
He's now averaged almost 90% across the two tests that he's taken since we started working together, compared to a pair of mid-60s Math marks in the first two terms. He's well on his way to completely turning that bad start around, which is wonderful to see. It sounds like he's even interested in continuing the studies through the summer. Both the student and his dad have said that they'd like to see the material from the start of Grade 7 covered (since he didn't do that well on it originally) and then perhaps we'll begin looking at what gets taught in Grade 8 nowadays to give him a leg up on next year's curriculum...
