I enjoy teaching across levels: from first-year undergraduates being introduced to the foundations of probability, to master's students grappling with more advanced statistical frameworks. I try to bring conceptual clarity, curiosity, and even a bit of humour into the classroom. 

📚 Teaching Approach

I try to meet students where they are while nudging them toward deeper insight. My approach balances:

• Formal rigour with accessible explanations

• Visual or computational intuition alongside theoretical results

• Encouraging active learning and open questions

• Supporting both strong and struggling students with tailored input

Teaching is one of the most rewarding parts of academic life, and a space where I continue to learn myself.
