During my TA duty for Engineering Mechanics, I had the opportunity to assist Prof. Rajdip Nayek and Prof. Hari Vemuri in conducting tutorial classes twice a week. This involved providing students with additional explanations, clarifying concepts, and guiding them through problem-solving exercises. In addition to my teaching responsibilities, I was entrusted with grading two quiz assignments a minor and a major exam.
During my TA duty for Continuum Mechanics, I had the opportunity to assist Prof. Arjun Sharma by evaluating four assignments and providing essential support during the invigilation of both the minor and major examinations. As a grader, I reviewed and assessed four out of the six the assignments.
During my TA duty for Introduction to Finite Element Method, I had the opportunity to assist Prof. Gaurav Singh in various tasks. I assisted him in organizing and conducting two minor exams and one major exam and graded the first minor exam. In addition to scheduling exams, I actively assisted Prof. Singh in designing the practical sessions. Out of the six numerical methods practical sessions, I took on the responsibility of teaching and conducting three, and similarly, for the six Finite Element Method practical sessions, I taught in two while providing additional guidance during the remaining sessions. Moreover, I played a role in grading and maintaining the entire practical grade sheet, ensuring accuracy and fairness in the evaluation process.
During my TA duty for Continuum Mechanics, I had the opportunity to assist Prof. Gaurav Singh in conducting classes for 60 students enrolled in that class. My key role in that course was to provide additional support to students who required further clarification for their doubts. Furthermore, I also supported the professor and other TAs in evaluating copies and grading performance throughout the course.
During my TA duty for Introduction to Finite Element Method, I had the opportunity to assist Prof. Gaurav Singh in conducting all 12 sets of experiments for 35 students enrolled in that class. My key role in that course is to provide context behind the setup, and teach them two key concepts attached to this experiment, (i) How the experiment is designed and what to expect from the experiment itself, and (ii) How to approach a meaningful conclusion from the outcome of the experiments i.e how to curve-fit for important parameters and from that how to employ the correction factors to reach the meaningful results.
During my TA duty for Introduction to Finite Element Method, I had the opportunity to assist Prof. Gaurav Singh in various tasks. I assisted him in organizing and conducting two minor exams and six quizzes, one major exam, and graded the first minor exam. In addition to scheduling exams, I actively assisted Prof. Singh in designing the practical sessions. Out of the five practical sessions for numerical methods, I took on the responsibility of teaching and conducting four. Similarly, for the six Finite Element Method practical sessions, I taught in three while providing additional guidance during the remaining sessions. Moreover, I played a role in grading and maintaining the entire practical grade sheet, ensuring accuracy and fairness in the evaluation process.
During my TA duty for Solids and Fluids laboratory, I had the oppertunity to provide theoretical and hands on experience for 8 laboratory sessons describing various aspects of solid mechanics and material science For 2nd Year B. Tech students. I orgonized 20 minutes long theoretical summeries and 1 hour long practical sessons for the following experiments: Uniaxial tensile test, Uniaxial compression test, Torsion test, Impact test, Hardness test, Strain gauge measurements, Column buckling test. Further duties involved arranging for groups to take part in the practicals and construction and maintenance of a three step marking process involving evaluating their perticipance in the eperinments, effort and accuracy in the group report and performance in viva for each experiment.
During my TA duty for Continuum Mechanics, I had the opportunity to assist Prof. Gaurav Singh in conducting classes for 45 students enrolled in that class. My key role in that course was to provide additional support to students who required further clarification for their doubts. Furthermore, I also supported the professor and the other TA in evaluating copies and grading performance throughout the course.
During my TA duty for Fracture Mechanics, I had the opportunity to assist Prof. Gaurav Singh in teaching classes to 6 students enrolled in the course. My key role in that course was to provide additional support to students who required further clarification for their doubts.
During my TA duty for the Solid Mechanics course, I had the opportunity to assist Prof. Gaurav Singh in conducting classes for 45 enrolled students. I co-taught the tutorial sessions where numerical problems from various mechanics topics—such as stress, strain, shear force diagrams (SFD), bending moment diagrams (BMD), torsion, and bending—were explained in detail. My primary role was to guide students in approaching challenging problems by demonstrating clear, step-by-step solution strategies for important quantities such as critical stress and bending deflection. Together with Prof. Singh, I conducted 12 tutorial classes.
