Does your learner need help understanding certain aspects of astronomy? Are they struggling to understand concepts or need help finishing an assignment before a deadline? Does your learner want someone to talk about their astronomical interests with who can meet them at their level of understanding and take them further? Or do they want to learn astrophotography? I can help your learner comprehend various astronomical subjects by request in this 1 on 1 ongoing tutoring format. The following are some examples (non-exhaustive) of astronomy topics learners 18 and under struggle with that I can help the learner better understand: Astrobiology Astrophotography Black holes Constellations (Northern Hemisphere) Cosmology Exoplanets Extragalactic astronomy HR diagrams Lunar phases Purchasing telescope equipment Planetary science Polaris Spectroscopy Stellar life cycles Telescope troubleshooting My tutoring style aims to maximize the learner’s understanding by going over examples at a pace tailored to their current understanding of whatever subject we are discussing. I will ensure that your learner fully comprehends what we are covering in the sessions and will include ancillary examples whenever its inclusion would aid in your learner's understanding. I will strive to make the session as enjoyable and productive as possible for the given subject material. Learners should bring the course material they are struggling with to class for us to discuss (if applicable). Learners should also share their assignments/documents before the start of class (if applicable) to allow for increased preparedness so that the sessions run most efficiently.
