Meet Danni Vitullo, Actor, Computer Engineer and Tutor
Happy National Tutor Appreciation Week!
Tell us a little about yourself…
I'm a Junior Computer
Engineering Major, Creative Writing Minor. I like listening to podcasts, doing
community theater, and writing.
Tell us about how you are
involved on campus.
On campus, I do a lot
of playwriting/acting/directing for theaterCOM club, and I'm a TA for CMPE
212.
How and why did you get
involved in being a tutor?
A friend of mine
convinced me to become a tutor because I'm very good at explaining concepts,
and he thought I should be paid for helping him and other students with their
classes.
What is your favorite thing about being a
tutor?
I tutor for
challenging math and tech-based courses, so my favorite thing is seeing when a
subject finally clicks for the person I'm tutoring and they really understand
it.
Why should students utilize the tutoring?
I always tell people
to use the LRC because it's a totally free resource that gives students and
chance for more focused help. I think anyone can pass all their classes, but
it's easy to get left behind, especially when the class is large or the
professor isn't good at communicating. If you wait to get help
until you're failing, it'll be hard to pull up your grade, but
if you get help early and often you'll be able to keep up
easily.
What advice would you give
students about how to prepare for a tutoring session?
Always come to a
tutoring knowing what topics you want to go over, and coming with
specific questions or with practice problems (not homework problems) to work on
is always helpful.
When and where can someone work with you through the Learning Resources Center?
I have walk-in hours
Mon 12-1, Tues 1-2, and Wed 11-12 and 3-4 in either Sherman 335 or Sherman 340. You can download the StudyTree app on your
phone to book an appointment.

Meet Haythem Abdelkhalek, swimmer, lifeguard, and tutor
Happy National Tutor Appreciation Week!
Tell us a little
about yourself.
My name is Haythem Abdelkhalek
and I am from Tunisia. I am a transfer student from the University of Rouen of
Sciences (France) and now I am a senior Information Systems major and a swimmer
on the UMBC Swimming & Diving team.
Tell us about how you are involved on
campus.
As a swimmer on the UMBC Swimming & Diving Team since
2016 I get the opportunity to compete for my university and represent its
students and values. I tutor mostly French and Arabic at the Learning Resources
Center but I also tutor Computer Science, Information Systems, and Math when
needed. I lifeguard at the RAC and I give swim lessons to people of all ages
and all levels.
How and why did you get involved in being
a tutor?
When I transferred here, in my first course: French 339, my
professor advised me to join the Learning Resources Center as a French tutor. I
thought this was a great opportunity for me to get more involved on campus,
meet new people, and keep practicing my language skills.
What is your favorite thing about being
a tutor?
The best reward I could ever get as a tutor is receiving
emails from students I tutored earlier in the semester telling me that they
successfully passed the course they were failing or for getting that A they
were about to miss.
Why should students utilize the tutoring?
Tutoring is such a
great resource that help students improve their grades, pass courses, or simply
improve their speaking skills when learning new languages.
What advice would you give students about
how to prepare for a tutoring session?
The best way to prepare for a tutoring session is to bring
lots of questions and exercises or quizzes that the student is having trouble
with. Making sure that the student understands what they got wrong in previous
assignments is the most efficient way to build a solid base and start
improving.
When and where can someone work with you
through the Learning Resources Center?
My schedule is very flexible and I can adapt to students
needs easily. You can find me most of the time at Sherman Hall 332 and just
send and email to the ASC and we will get you started with your first step to success ASAP!

Researcher of the Week: Adursh Iyer
Gamma-rays and black holes- It's not sci-fi, its research!
Adursh Iyer is a Physics major with minors in Astrophysics and Mathematics, who will graduate in 2020.
List any Scholars/Honors programs you are a part of: Honors College, URA Scholar
Title of your research project:
Searching for Gamma-Ray Emission from Black Hole Jets
Describe your project:
My research currently entails assessing the level of gamma-ray emission coming from the relativistic jets of ionized plasma ejected from Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), which host a supermassive black hole at their centers. This involves using the Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope operated by NASA to generate what are called ‘Light Curves’, which measure the brightness over time of the jet. The big question is why these jets produce X-ray wavelength light, and confirming whether or not they produce Gamma-ray light as well allows us to determine between two different theories about the X-ray light origin.
Who is your mentor(s) for your project?
My mentors for this project are Assistant Professor Dr. Eileen T. Meyer of the Physics Department at UMBC and her graduate student Peter Breiding, who will soon be beginning his Postdoctoral Fellow position at West Virginia University. I had applied for a research assistant position that Dr. Meyer had open in her group during my sophomore year, and I was humbled to have been chosen by her to begin this project, and have subsequently become a better scientist and person because of this opportunity. Ever since I had a conversation with her and Peter when I was first starting out, I had immediately developed an interest in learning more about Gamma-Ray Astronomy since I knew so little at the time. They have both constantly pushed me to be the most successful researcher that I can be by encouraging me to ask valuable questions and having fun while I perform this research, as well as offering an invaluable amount of advice at every stage of the data analysis process and encouraging me to present my findings!
How did you become interested in this project?
I have been interested in Astronomy and Astrophysics from a young age and have always pondered about what types of marvelous phenomena occur beyond Earth and our solar system, so being involved in this project was natural for me. I already had considerable coding experience before starting this project, which has proven to be a major strength of mine since virtually all of my work involves using some variant of a high level programming language (Python, Perl, R, etc.).
What has been the hardest part about your research/what was the most unexpected thing about being a researcher?
The most challenging part about my project so far has been understanding the overwhelming amount of theory associated with Radio-Loud AGN and Black Hole Jets, since all of these concepts are typically contained within graduate level textbooks, which is far beyond what I would be expected to know at the undergraduate level. Because of this deficiency of mine, I have since devoted considerable time to reading countless Astrophysical publications and graduate texts ahead of time to progress my knowledge of these subjects, which has been an eye-opening and fun experience!
What has been the most rewarding part?
I would say that the most rewarding portion of my project so far has been the level at which people have been appreciative of what I have been able to accomplish so far and will accomplish in the future. The amount of data that I have been able to analyze so far has been massive, and the Light Curve Analysis in particular can be very computationally intensive. As a result, it can be intimidating to choose which specific results to include in a publication or presentation, so being encouraged to share my findings with the rest of the scientific community has been a very reassuring feeling.
How will you disseminate your research?
I will be presenting my research at the American Astronomical Society Meeting in January of 2019 in Seattle, Washington, as well as at URCAD in April. I will also be a coauthor of a publication that our research group plans to publish over the upcoming year in the Astrophysical Journal, which implements my recent findings.
What is your advice to other students about getting involved in research?
Have a clear goal of what topic you would like to explore and what you want to achieve in the long term, and have the ability to adapt to uncomfortable situations. Scientific research is all about presenting your findings in a concise and orderly matter, while at the same time being able to accept and respond to impromptu criticism. Therefore, it is imperative that you are able to devote time to becoming as much of an expert in your particular field as possible, while at the same time developing a broader knowledge of more abstract topics should the time come that you are questioned by experts.
What are your career goals?
After obtaining my Bachelor’s Degree in Physics, I plan on pursuing graduate studies up to a Ph.D. in Astrophysics. I intend to continue conducting research on events associated with High Energy Astrophysics, while potentially expanding my knowledge more broadly to fields like General Relativity and Astroparticle Physics. Some topics which I am considering studying at a high level include exotic phenomena such as AGN, Tidal Disruption Events, Neutron Stars, Pulsars, and Gamma-Ray Bursts (just to name a few!).
