As an educator, my main focus in the classroom is humanizing the mathematical learning process through transparency. I use regular assessment as a key component to measuring student progress toward course goals and fulfillment. Through these techniques and others, I strive to make my classroom an equitable learning environment for all. Every student who enters my classroom has the potential for conceptual mastery and academic success.
I have four years of wide-ranging sole-instructor undergraduate mathematics teaching experience at the University of Oregon. I have experience with traditional lecture classes with active learning components as well as the flipped classroom. During the pandemic, I had the opportunity to gain experience teaching synchronous online classes. Additionally, I have participated in the UO math department's Directed Reading Program for two years and intend to participate this coming winter as well. In order to enhance my skills, I'm currently working on the UO Graduate Teaching Initiative's certificate program. More about my philosophy and experience can be found in my teaching statement.
