My teaching experience began more than 15 years ago, when I started working for the
University of Virginia Athletics Department in 2003 tutoring athletes in Calculus.
For the two years before I started at UC Berkeley I was a
faculty member at Woodberry
Forest, a private boarding school in central Virginia, where I
taught AP Physics B and research, general, and freshman physics;
and at the Yinhatil Nab'en (“Seeds of
Knowledge”) School in San Mateo Ixtatán, Huehuetenango, Guatemala, a small
town in the northwestern Mayan highlands, where I taught math, physics, and music.
As a graduate student in the UC Berkeley Astronomy Department,
I served as a graduate student instructor for both
Astronomy 7A (introductory astronomy for majors) and Alex Filippenko’s popular
Astronomy C10 (for non-majors), and tutored more than 20 Bay Area high school
students in physics, math, and Spanish.
In the fall of 2010, I co-organized a course entitled
“Radio 101:
Everything You Ever Wanted to Know about the Basics of Radio Astronomy,
but Were Afraid to Ask.” Radio 101 was a graduate-student-led seminar
designed to familiarize interested graduate students with the fundamentals
of radio astronomy.
