Making Notes: Making notes is when you draw on you image to show where the the dark or other shading starts and when the light ends. When making notes you are not to be adding detail this is just left as a reminder as where shapes on your image should me (for example you can make note of you Ned/Nancy normal).
Pushing:When pushing an image it means to darken the image. (For example when you have an eye socket and you think it should be darker you are pushing the image)
Modelling:When modelling you are showing where light hits the image that you are drawing. (For example the light that shines on you for head would be shown by using an eraser this would be called modelling)
Photo Copy Mode: When an artist uses the term Photo Copy Mode they are meaning that they are staring at an object in black and white. When you squint at the object it helps you to see or imagine the different shapes and values of darkness to light.
Describing: Describing is when you show where the negative space on the image is to be and where the positive space is on the image. 
Not Symbols:Not Symbols is when you do not think about the specifics on the image you just sketch the outline of what you are seeing on the object. Meaning do not at all add detail to you drawing in the beginning stages.
