Personally taught more than 350 students over 6 courses including neuroscience, evolution of language, and cell biology. I received excellent evaluations across all courses I taught. In the Cluster program I developed curriculum and taught a seminar from the ground up. This included oral and written presentations, mentorship and grading.
As a CA for the Neurosystems and Behavior summer course, I worked in closely with faculty and students to execute a fast paced, hands on overview of systems neuroscience during an 8 week intensive course.
I supported our programs success by partnering with teaching staff and leadership to achieve goals around milestones, pacing and engagement. I excelled at juggling logistical complexity of an MBL summer course with a large variety of faculty and student needs.
