Teaching Experience
I have led the theoretical discussion sessions for a number of courses and conducted a bunch of laboratory-based experiments while working as a Teaching Assistance (TA), both at the University of California, Irvine and at the Univeristy of Kansas.
- Spring 2007: Introduction to C and Numerical Analysis (P53, UCI) Conducted discussion sessions and computer labs. Taught C-programming and helped the students understand different ways to attack complicated physical problems numerically.
- Winter 2007: Introduction to Cosmology (P137, UCI) Graded all the homeworks of this upper division cosmology course. The course was at the
- Winter 2007: Extragalactic Astrophysics (P138, UCI) Conducted discussion sessions and graded the homeworks of this upper division course, taught from "Galaxies in the Universe: An Introduction" by Sparke and Gallagher.
- Fall 2006: Space Science (P20D, UCI) Graded the homeworks of large (~100 students) introductory space science class.
- Fall 2006: General Physics III (P3C, UCI) Led a couple of discussion sessions of this huge (~300 students) basic physics class. Also
- Fall 2004 - Spring 2006: General Physics III Lab (PHSX313, KU) Conducted all the laboratory-based experiments for this class, where the main concentrations
