Teaching

This semester I am teaching Intermediate Algebra (Math 105).  Course information is available on Canvas. 

In previous semesters, I have been the instructor of record for the following courses at Rutgers University-Newark (RU), Columbia University (CU) and Boston College (BC):

• Intermediate Algebra (RU - Fall 2024)

• College Algebra for Science and Business (RU - Fall 2024)

• Advanced Topics in Topology [Math 741]; focused on bundle theory and characteristic classes (RU - Spring 2023)

• Statistics I (RU - Fall 2022, Spring 2024) 

• Calculus III (CU - Spring 2022)

• Introduction to Knot Theory (CU - Fall 2021); see below for more information

• Linear Algebra (CU - Fall 2019, Fall 2020)

• Perspectives in Mathematics (CU - Fall 2019, co-taught with Dusa McDuff)

• Principles of Statistics for the Health Sciences (BC - Spring 2017)

• Finite Probability and Applications (BC - Fall 2015, Spring 2016, Summer 2017)

• Calculus I (BC - Summer 2016, Fall 2016)

• Calculus II (BC- Spring 2015, Summer 2018)

Other teaching:

• Winter School at Renyi: Notes for "A knot-theoretic tour of dimension four"

• Georgia Topology Conference Summer School 2024 - Notes available soon.

When possible, I like to insert bits of topology and knot theory into my teaching. The picture on the right shows an unacceptably knotted braid.
