COURSES

I’ve had the opportunity to teach in a variety of settings, primarily as a teaching assistant (TA) and also as a course instructor. As a Graduate Teaching Assistant at Ohio State, I’ve led labs and recitations in both introductory mechanics and electricity & magnetism. I also worked as a TA during my time at UTEP, where I taught recitation sections, graded upper-division physics courses, and ran introductory physics labs.

​

In 2020, I taught a course titled Special Topics in Physics II at Instituto Tesla, a STEM-focused high school in Juarez. I designed the course content and delivered a calculus-based introduction to topics including mechanical waves, electromagnetic fields, and quantum mechanics.
