\"Prateek<\/a>Prateek Gowda<\/a> has some advice for anyone tutoring an 8-year-old: Don\u2019t underestimate the power of math games, Dr. Seuss books, and the occasional bag of spicy sweet chili Doritos chips. \u201cYou\u2019ve got to make it fun,\u201d advises the junior\u00a0biomedical engineering<\/a> major. \u201cNever forget that they\u2019re tired at end of a long school day.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gowda should know. For more than a year, he\u2019s spent four hours a week working with an energetic Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fan through the Johns Hopkins Tutorial Project,<\/a> which provides twice-weekly after-school tutoring to more than 100 area elementary school students.<\/p>\n

\u201cTutoring is a way that I can have a positive impact on someone else\u2019s life,\u201d Gowda explains. \u201cBut it\u2019s also just refreshing to work with kids, to hear what they are up to. They are fun and goofy. Being with them gives you a new perspective.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
