TEACHING

I have enjoyed teaching general mathematics courses, mathematics pre-major courses, and pre-major courses for other disciplines. I believe in creating a captivating learning environment where students are active participants in their own education. I ensure students are learning by doing, emphasizing that asking questions and reflection about the material are vital to their learning process.

I received the "2014-2015 Outstanding Graduate Teaching Award", the highest teaching award available to graduate students from the Department of Mathematics at USC. See my "Evidence of Teaching Effectiveness" for information pulled from my course evaluations:
