What would be the best way to introduce you to the project?

Question

I am in a situation where I have to act as a tutor for a new developer in my current project.

What will be the best way to quickly enter the project - both technically, objectively, and socially.

I have read quite a few pro-TDD people who talk about pair programming, starting with an experienced test team member and a new guy who implements real code and then switch.

What works best for you?
