Class Experience

US Grade 5 - 8
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
How to pick the right telescope for you 
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.
