Hi, Once you are in the room with all the students, the room is all your and your own little world. The students will be looking toward you seeking the knowledge that you have and you are in control of the entire session. What ever comes out of your mouth they will generally trust providing you do not fumble trying to figure out answers to questions that you do know know. therefore it is of utmost importance that if you do not know the answer, just simply state that you will look into it and get back to them - and make sure you do! - Your nerves really comes from your thoughts of not really being sure if you can effectively handle the session. therefore, do not pose to know what you don't and the room will become your own little world that you will feel comfortable in.

One thing you want to be sure you are doing is helping the students understand that this is just a way of scientific thinking.
You don't want to force the topic on them because you don't want to upset anyone so be really careful on how you are tutoring it.

You could call in sick.
