Teaching

As a graduate student at IU, I have taught a variety of undergraduate math courses. The courses that I have taught at IU are listed below. In addition, I have also had the opportunity to mentor undergraduate students through the Directed Reading Program and the Laboratory of Geometry (Log(IU)).

While a master's student at the University of Northern Iowa, I taught an introductory computer science class for high school students as part of the Upward Bound program.

Student Evaluations

Below are some comments from student evaluations for courses I have taught at IU which I particularly enjoy.

Undergraduate Mentoring

Directed Reading Program (DRP)

In Spring 2021 I participated in the DRP at IU. I mentored a junior undergraduate on a guided reading of the book Introduction to Smooth Manifolds by John Lee. During our weekly meetings, I answered his questions, suggested readings, and recommended exercise problems. At the end of the semester, the student gave a successful presentation on what he learned to the math department.

Laboratory of Geometry: Log(IU)

In Fall 2021, I co-mentored two undergraduates, along with Caroline Davis, on a project which involved 3D-printing Julia sets and other fractals. This project was part of Log(IU), which is IU's Laboratory of Geometry. The students learned about Julia sets, and were able to produce many fascinating prints. The project involved writing code in Python and C++ to generate sequences of images of fractals, and then processing them into 3D models using Fiji and Slicer. I've included some images of their work to the left and below, which were presented to the math department.
